Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(4-bromobutyl)-2-methyl-1-thia-3-azaspiro[4.4]nonan-4-one (4.20 g), 3-(1-piperazinyl)-1H-indazole (3.0 g), K2CO3 (5.68 g), NaI (310 mg), and acetonitrile (220 ml) was heated between 60° and 80° C. under nitrogen. After 18 hours, TLC analysis showed only a trace of the starting bromide. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, ethyl acetate (150 ml) was added, the inorganics filtered, and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in dichloromethane (230 ml), washed with H2O (130 ml), brine (130 ml), dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated to a foam. The foam was chromatographed on silica gel, diluting with 8% methanol in dichloromethane, to furnish 5.04 g of a foam which solidified upon addition of ether/hexanes. The solid was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexanes to give 3.72 g of 3-(4-(1-[1 H-indazol-3-yl]-4-piperazinyl)butyl)-2-methyl-1-thia-3-azaspiro[4.4]non-4-one, m.p. 113°-115° C.
