4-Chlorobenzylpiperazine → 1-[3-(4-Benzyloxycoumarin-7-yloxy)-2-hydroxypropyl]-4-(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-benzyloxy-7-(2,3-epoxypropyloxy)coumarin (8.48 g; 0.026 mole), 1-(4-chlorobenzyl)piperazine (6.20 g; 0.0295 mole) and ethanol (50 ml) were refluxed together for 90 mins and allowed to cool. Evaporation of the solvent in vacuo gave an oily residue which crystallized on trituration with petrol ether. Recrystallization from methanol gave 8.67 g (62%) of title compound of m.p. 130°-133° C., νmax (mull) 1720, 1615 cm-1 ; δ (CDCl3) 2.55 (10H, m); 3.20 (1H, m); 3.48 (2H, s); 4.07 (3H broad s); 5.20 (2H, s); 5.68 (1H, s); 6.89 (2H, m); 7.30 (4H, s); 7.45 (5H, s); 7.77 (1H, d, J 10 Hz). (Found: C, 67.72; H, 6.00; N, 5.29; Cl, 7.21; C30H31N2ClO5 requires; C, 67.34; H, 5.84; N, 5.24; Cl, 6.63%).
