4-(4-Benzylpiperazin-1-yl)aniline → N-[4-[4-(phenylmethyl)-1-piperazinyl]phenyl]-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-[4-(phenylmethyl)-1-piperazinyl]-benzenamine (0.12 mole) in THF (300 ml) and triethylamine (50 ml) was stirred. [1,1′-Biphenyl]-2-carbonyl chloride (0.12 mole) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred overnight. The solvent was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in DCM. The organic layer was separated, washed, dried, filtered and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was triturated in DIPE/2-propanol. The precipitate was filtered off and dried. A part (1 g) of this fraction was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (eluent: CH2Cl2/CH3OH 99/1). The pure fractions were collected and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was triturated in DIPE. The precipitate was filtered off and dried, yielding 0.84 g of N-[4-[4-(phenylmethyl)-1-piperazinyl]phenyl]-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-carboxamide (intermediate 9, melting point 162° C.).
