Triethylamine → 1-[1-(Tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-ylmethyl]-4-(chloromethanesulfonyl)-2-piperazinone

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-[1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-ylmethyl]-2-piperazinone (2.5 g) and triethylamine (1.7 g) in dichloromethane (35 ml) was added at 0° C. a solution of chloromethanesulfonyl chloride (1.26 g) in dichloromethane (2 ml), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The reaction solution was washed with water, 10% citric acid solution and brine, dried and concentrated, and the residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate) to give colorless syrup of 1-[1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-ylmethyl]-4-(chloromethanesulfonyl)-2-piperazinone (2.47 g).
