Diisopropylethylamine → (2R)-1-(2-methylbenzothiazol-5-yloxy)-3-{4-[2-(2-methylphenoxy)ethyl]piperazinyl}propan-2-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-bromo-1-(2-methylphenoxy)ethane (1.09 g, 5.09 mmol, crude) in EtOH (15 mL) was added (2R)-3-(2-methylbenzothiazol-5-yloxy)-1-piperazinylpropan-2-ol as prepared in Example 3A (250 mg, 0.81 mmol) and DIEA (1.5 mL, 8.6 mmol). The solution was stirred at reflux for 14 hours. Upon cooling, the solution was concentrated to an oil and then purified on an Isco™ (100% EtOAc hold 2 min, 8 min. gradient to 20% MeOH/EtOAc, hold 10 min) to afford (2R)-1-(2-methylbenzothiazol-5-yloxy)-3-{4-[2-(2-methylphenoxy)ethyl]piperazinyl }propan-2-ol.
