Participants

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (0.159 mL, 1.139 mmol) was added to a stirred suspension of 4-(3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-N-methyl-N-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-imidazole-1-carboxamide hydrochloride (0.200 g, 0.542 mmol) and 3-chloropropanenitrile (0.058 g, 0.651 mmol) at room temperature. The clear solution was allowed to stir at reflux for 2 h, during which time a white suspension formed. The mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature, diluted with a mixture of dichloromethane/isopropanol (7:3) and then washed with water. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give a colourless solid that was triturated with ethanol to give the product (142 mg, 64%).
