Hydrochloric Acid → 1-(3-Phenyl-(1,2,4)thiadiazol-5-yl)-piperazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 4-(3-phenyl-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (5.06 g, 14.6 mmol) in ethyl acetate (80 ml) was added a 4 N solution of hydrogen chloride in ethyl acetate (40 ml), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. Hexane (200 ml) was added to the reaction mixture and a precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The obtained solid was added to an aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (300 ml), followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. The obtained powder was collected by filtration to yield 2.77 g (77.0%) the desired product.
