Reaction Steps

4-Methoxy-3-(piperidin-4-yloxy)benzonitrile hydrochloride salt (3, 28.36 g, 95.82 mmoles), 2-chloro-N-methylacetamide (12.37 g, 114.98 mmoles) and potassium carbonate (33.11 g, 239.55 mmoles) were suspended in acetonitrile (161.36 g). The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 20° C. and water (386.26 g) was charged. The reaction was heated to 75° C. and the volume reduced by distillation. Upon cooling crystallisation occurred. The resulting solid was isolated by filtration, washed twice with water (77.25 g and 128.75 g) and then dried to give the title compound (27.95 g, 94% yield); 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.68 (m, 2H) 1.91 (m, 2H) 2.29 (m, 2H) 2.61 (d, J=4.7 Hz, 3H) 2.67 (m, 2H) 2.88 (s, 2H) 3.83 (s, 3H) 4.41 (tt, J=8.3, 4.0 Hz, 1H) 7.11 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H) 7.40 (dd, J=8.4, 1.9 Hz, 1H) 7.47 (d, J=1.9 Hz, 1H) 7.68 (q, J=4.7 Hz, 1H); Mass Spectrum: m/z (M+H)+ 304.2.
