Iodoethanol → 1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-1-methyl-4-(benzoxazol-2-yl)homo-piperazinium iodide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 100 mg portion of 2-(4-methyl-1-homopiperazinyl)-benzoxazole was dissolved in 3 ml of THF. Under cooling with ice, 89 mg of 2-iodoethyl alcohol was added to the thus prepared solution, and the reaction was carried out for 1 hour at the same temperature and then for 29 hours at room temperature. The reaction solution was concentrated under a reduced pressure, and 3 ml of acetone was added to the resulting residue. The precipitate thus formed was collected by filtration, washed with acetone and then dried to obtain 143 mg of the title compound.
