1-Benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-methyl 2-ethylpiperazine-1,2,4-tricarboxylate → HCID 66979256, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-Benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-methyl 2-ethylpiperazine-1,2,4-tricarboxylate (1.1 g, 2.7 mmol) was dissolved in 10 mL of methanol and glacial acetic acid (2 drops) was added. Palladium on carbon (5%, 410 mg) was added, and the reaction mixture was stirred under a H2 atmosphere for 17 h at rt. The mixture was filtered through diatomaceous earth and the filter cake washed with MeOH. The combined filtrates were concentrated under reduced pressure to give 1-tert-butyl 3-methyl 3-ethylpiperazine-1,3-dicarboxylate (compound IV-JJ) as an oil. LCMS: 273.1 m/z (M+H)+.
