Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(2-cyano-4-methoxy-phenyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (680 mg, 2.14 mmol) in NH3/EtOH (2M, 15 mL) was added Raney Nickel (5 mL slurry in water). The atmosphere was exchanged with hydrogen via balloon and the mixture was allowed to stir for 2.5 h. After this time the mixture was filtered through celite and concentrated to yield the title compound (650 mg). m/z (M+1) 321.57.
