Participants

Reaction Steps

0.9 g of Sodium hydride was added to 15 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran stirring at room temperature under nitrogen. A solution of 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-triphenylmethylpiperazine in 5 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise and then stirred a further 1 hour after the addition was complete. Finally, a solution of 1.8 g of ethyl 4-chloroacetoacetate in 5 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran was added over 1 hour and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. 5 Drops of isopropanol were added to the mixture which was then poured onto 100 g of ice and carefully neutralised with concentrated hydrochloric acid. After extraction with ethyl acetate, the residual oil was dissolved in acetonitrile, washed three times with petroleum ether (40°-60°) and evaporated to give 2.6 g of 1-[2-(ethoxycarbonylacetylmethoxy)ethyl]-4-triphenylmethylpiperazine as an orange-red oil, used directly.
