Procedure

4-[4-(4-Carboxy-phenyl)-5-methyl-thiazol-2-yl]-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (0.421 mmol) was dissolved in 4M HCl in 1,4-dioxane, and stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The solvent was then removed under vacuum, and the residue 4-(5-methyl-2-piperazin-1-yl-thiazol-4-yl)-benzoic acid was suspended in methanol (10 ml) and treated with AcOH/AcONa buffer (pH ˜5.5, 5 ml), and formaldehyde (0.547 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, then treated with NaCNBH3 (0.547 mmol) and stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was then removed under vacuum, and the residue was purified by column chromatography to afford the title compound (0.403 mmol, 95%).
