Ethanol → 4-(4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

Add 4-[4-bromo-1-(2-dimethylamino-ethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.0 g; 0.0024 mol; 1.0 equiv), 4-chloro phenyl boronic acid (0.58 g; 0.0037 mol; 1.5 equiv), 3M Na2CO3 solution (0.79 g; 0.0074 mol; 3.0 equiv) to ethanol (5 mL) and toluene (5 mL) and degas the reaction with argon. Add Pd(PPh3)4 (0.29 g; 0.00024 mol; 0.1 equiv) and microwave at 110° C. for 20 min. Add EA and filter through a Celite® bed. Add saturated NaHCO3 aqueous and extract with EA. Evaporate the organic layer, and purify the residue over a silica gel column with methanol in DCM to give the title compound (0.8 g; crude).
