2,3-Dichloropyridine → HCID 57979781, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S,6S)-1-[(4-tert-butylphenyl)sulfonyl]-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (120 mg, 0.39 mmol) and 2,3-Dichloropyridine (115 mg, 0.78 mmol) in anhydrous 1,4-Dioxane (0.2 mL) was added diisopropylethylamine (0.201 mL, 1.16 mmol). The mixture was subject to microwave irradiation at 200° C. for 1 hour. Reaction was half complete as determined by TLC. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with saturated NH4Cl (aq.), 10% HCl (aq.), water and brine. Organic layer was dried over MgSO4. Solvent evaporation followed by flash column chromatography afforded (2S,6S)-1-[(4-tert-butylphenyl)sulfonyl]-4-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-2,6-dimethylpiperazine in 27.7% yield (45 mg) as off white solid.
