Dichloromethane → 3-(4-Isopropyl-piperazin-1-yl)-propylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Hydrazine (8.63 g, 270 mmol) is added to a stirred suspension of 2-[3-(4-isopropylpiperazin-1-yl)-propyl]-isoindole-1,3-dione (17.0 g, 53.9 mmol) in anhydrous ethanol (400 mL). The resultant mixture is heated in an oil bath at 75° C. for 16 hours. At ambient temperature, dichloromethane (300 mL) is added to the mixture and the suspension is allowed to stir for 10 minutes. After filtration and concentration, the title compound is obtained as a tan oil (8.12 g, 81% yield).
