Procedure

Heat at reflux for 16 h, a mixture of 1-(6-trifluoromethyl-benzo[b]thiophen-3-yl)-piperazine, free base of Example 2b, (23.0 g, 71.3 mmol), trans-2-methanesulfonyloxymethyl-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid methyl ester (Example 5a) (15.3 g, 73.5 mmol), and triethylamine (40 mL, 288 mmol) in acetonitrile (600 mL). Concentrate the reaction mixture under reduced pressure and dilute the resultant oil with EtOAc (30 mL). Filter the resulting precipitate (unreacted starting piperazine) away and purify the filtrate by column chromatography over silica gel (EtOAc/heptane/MeOH/triethylamine, 20:20:1). Concentration of the appropriate fractions gives 18.0 g of colorless oil, m/z=413 (M+H)+.
