Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 11.0 g. (24.4 mmole) 4-{2-[1-(2-chlorobenzyl)-piperazin-4-yl]-ethyl}-benzoyl chloride dihydrochloride (prepared from the dihydrochloride of the acid by boiling for 3 hours with excess thionyl chloride, evaporating and digesting with ligroin; yield 98% of theory; m.p. 260° C.) and 10 ml. anhydrous pyridine there are added, with stirring at 20° C., 10 ml. ethanolamine and the reaction mixture is left to stand overnight and then poured into about 100 ml. water. The precipitate obtained is washed with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate and with water, dried and then recrystallised from aqueous ethanol. There is obtained a yield of the desired product of 5.0 g. (51% of theory); m.p. 121°-122° C.
