Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of (3-fluoro-4-nitrophenyl)(3-(fluoromethyl)piperazin-1-yl)methanone (456 mg, 1.6 mmol), N-tert-butyl-3-(chloromethyl)benzamide (361 mg, 1.6 mmol), triethylamine (3.1 mmol, 341 mg) and sodium iodide (1.6 mmol, 240 mg) in acetonitrile (10 mL) was heated to 60° C. for several hours. The reaction was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was then dissolved in dichloromethane and extracted with water (×3). The organic phase was dried (sodium sulfate) and concentrated under vacuum. The crude material was purified using silica chromatography to give the title compound (435 mg). MS (ESI) m/z 475.7[M+H]+
