Reaction Steps

4-|cis-2,6-Dimethyl-4-(4-trifluoromethoxy-phenyl)-piperazine-1-sulfonyl|-indan-2-carbonitrile. Triethylamine (200 μL, 1.4349 mmol) and phosphorus oxychloride (74 μL, 0.7939 mmol) were added to a solution of 4-[cis-2,6-dimethyl-4-(4-trifluoromethoxy-phenyl)-piperazine-1-sulfonyl]-indan-2-carboxylic acid amide (254 mg, 0.5105 mmol) in dichloroethane (3 mL). The reaction was stirred for 4 h at room temperature then directly purified by silica gel column chromatography (0-50% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford 4-[cis-2,6-dimethyl-4-(4-trifluoromethoxy-phenyl)-piperazine-1-sulfonyl]-indan-2-carbonitrile (23 mg, 9%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ ppm 7.77 (d, 1H), 7.54 (d, 1H), 7.42 (t, 1H), 7.10 (d, 2H), 6.93 (d, 2H), 4.20-4.00 (m, 2H), 3.65-3.60 (m, 1H), 3.60-3.40 (m, 2H), 3.40-3.20 (m, 4H), 2.80-2.60 (m, 2H), 1.50 (d, 6H). LCMS: 480.0 (M+1)+.
