Hydrochloric Acid → N-(3-chloro-4-(piperazin-1-yl)phenyl)picolinamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

According to Scheme 5 Step 4: HCl 4 M in dioxane (12.3 mmol, 3.07 mL) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 4-(2-chloro-4-(picolinamido)phenyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (2.46 mmol, 1.02 g) in DCM (10 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After evaporation, DCM was added and then a NaOH 1 M solution. The aqueous phase was extracted with DCM. The organic phase was washed with brine, was dried over MgSO4, was filtered and was concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel using cyclohexane/AcOEt (60:40) as eluent to afford N-(3-chloro-4-(piperazin-1-yl)phenyl)picolinamide (0.97 mmol, 308 mg, 40%) as an orange solid.
