Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A well stirred mixture of 0.015 mmol of bis(tri-t-butylphosphine)palladium, 0.01 mmol of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, 2 mmol of powdered potassium hydroxide, 2 mmol of 3-(4-bromo-phenyl)-5-methyl-[1,2,4]oxadiazole and 2.1 mmol of N-BOC-piperazine in 1 ml of toluene was heated under Ar to 90° C. for 17 hours. The resulting reaction mixture was diluted with water, extracted with ethyl acetate and the product purified by column chromatography (SiO2; cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 7:3) to yield the title compound as a yellowish solid. MS (m/e): 345.3 (MH+, 100%)
