Diisopropylethylamine → 3-chloro-N-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl)-4-nitro-benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-chloro-4-nitro-benzoyl chloride (Intermediate 54; 2.2 g, 10.00 mmol) was dissolved in DCM (20 mL) and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (2.095 mL, 12.00 mmol) added. The mixture was cooled in an ice/water bath and 4-amino-1-methylpiperidine (Fluorochem; 1.14 g, 10.00 mmol) in DCM (10 mL) added dropwise. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 0.5 hr. A white precipitate resulted. The reaction mixture was washed with 2N NaOH, filtered and the filter cake washed with water and dried on a sinter over the weekend to give the title compound as a white solid (1.80 g, 60%) as a white solid.
