Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of piperazine (10.2 g, 0.118 mmol) and 3-chloro-1,2-benzisothiazole (4.0 g, 0.024 mmol) in t-BuOH (4 mL) was refluxed overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into water (100 mL) and extracted with toluene (200 mL). The organic phase was dried over MgSO4 and evaporated until about 20 mL remained, under vacuum. The resulting suspension was cooled at 0-5° C. overnight. The precipitate was filtered and dried under vacuum to provide 3-(piperazin-1-yl)benzo[d]isothiazole as an intermediate (3.36 g, 15.4 mmol, 65%).
