Piperazine → HCID 20463845, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-chloro-3-iodopyridine (2.39 g, 10 mmol) and piperazine (8.61 g, 100 mmol) in n-BuOH, 100 mL, was stirred at reflux under N2 for 18 h. After removing most of the n-BuOH under reduced pressure, the residue was partitioned between toluene and 10% NaOH. The toluene layer was washed further with water, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to an oil. The pyridinylpiperazine was purified by recrystallization of the dihydrochloride salt from methanol-ethanol-ethylacetate, m.p. 185°-189° C. (dec.).
