Procedure
To 5-chloro-2-(chloromethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran (1.6 g, 7.9 mmol) was added piperazine (2.72 g, 31.6 mmol, 4 eq) with stirring for 15 hours at 135° C. in an oil bath. The crude material was purified by silica gel chromatography using 3% dichloromethane in methanol to elute. The product-containing fractions were combined and concentrated under vacuum to afford 1-[(5-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methyl]piperazine as a light yellow solid (1.3 g, 65%); (ES, m/z): [M+H]+ 253; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.03-7.11 (m, 2H), 6.68 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 4.93-5.03 (m, 1H), 3.20-3.29 (m, 1H), 2.88-2.99 (m, 6H), 2.72-2.79 (m, 1H), 2.49-2.63 (m, 5H).
