Potassium Iodide → 1-[3-{4-[(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)amino]-1-piperidinyl}propyl]-1,3-dihydro-3-(1-methylethenyl)-2H-benzimidazol-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 105 parts of 1-(3-chloropropyl)-1,3-dihydro-3-(1-methylethenyl)-2H-benzimidazol-2-one, 71 parts of N-(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)-4-piperidinamine hydrobromide, 53 parts of sodium carbonate, 0.2 parts of potassium iodide and 320 parts of 4-methyl-2-pentanone is stirred and refluxed for 24 hours with water-separator. The reaction mixture is cooled, water is added and the layers are separated. The organic phase is dried, filtered and evaporated, yielding 98.5 parts (100%) of 1-[3-{4-[(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)amino]-1-piperidinyl}propyl]-1,3-dihydro-3-(1-methylethenyl)-2H-benzimidazol-2-one as a residue.
