Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethanol (14.42 g) and 3,5-dichloro-2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester (52.15 g) in chloroform (400 ml) were added triphenylphosphine (28.85 g) and azodicarboxylic acid diisopropyl (21.7 ml) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 16 hours. 1N Hydrochloric acid (300 ml) was added to the reaction mixture for extraction to give a crude product of the title compound.
