Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(4-Trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-piperazine (460 mg; 2.0 mmol) and sodium ethoxide (150 mg; 2.21 mmol) are dissolved in ethanol (2 mL) and irradiated for 5 minutes in a mono-mode microwave oven at 60° C. 2-Methyl-acrylic acid methyl ester (400 μL; 4.0 mmol) is then added and the resulting mixture is irradiated for 50 minutes in a mono-mode microwave oven at 100° C. The reaction is concentrated under reduced pressure, diluted in ethylacetate (10 mL) and extracted with water (2×5 mL). The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the desired product (623 mg; 1.89 mmol).
