Hydrazine → HCID 22174830, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 4-benzyl-1-(3-fluoro-2-carboxyphenyl)-piperazine (5.96 g, 20.0 mmol) in dimethylsulfoxide (10 mL) and hydrazine (10 mL) is heated at 95° C. under nitrogen for 4 days. The cooled reaction is diluted with ether and washed with a mixture of water and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer is further washed sequentially with water and brine dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give a residue. The residue is chromatographed using ethyl acetate as the eluant. The resulting oil is reconcentrated from ether to give a white foam which is stirred under hexanes/ether overnight. The resulting white powder is isolated by suction filtration and washed with hexane to give the title compound 3.11 g, (53% yield), identified by HNMR.
