Reaction Steps

((2R)-4-(2-thiophenylsulfonyl)-1-(4-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)phenyl)-2-piperazinyl)methyl methanesulfonate (250 mg, 0.473 mmol, Intermediate B), 3-isopropylpiperazin-2-one (67.3 mg, 0.473 mmol, ChemBridge, San Diego, Calif.), and potassium carbonate (196 mg, 1.419 mmol, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, Mo.) in acetonitrile (3.15 mL) was heated to 120° C. for 30 min After the reaction was allowed to cool to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with EtOAc and the solids were removed by filtering through a 0.2 μm millipore Millex-FG filter (Millipore, Billerica, Mass.). After concentration of the filtrate, the crude residue was purified by reverse-phase HPLC, (Phenomenex Gemini-NX 10μ, 110 Å, AXIA packed column, 100×50 mm, 60 mL/min, 10-95% CH3CN/H2O, 0.1% TFA, 10 min gradient), two peaks were collected and each was partitioned between CH2Cl2 and saturated aqueous NaHCO3, the organic layers were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to give 4 isomeric products
