Triethylamine → N-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-4-(2-tert-butylphenyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 1-(2-tert-butylphenyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (Reference Example 1, 1.76 g, 6.05 mmol), 1-(benzyloxy)-4-isocyanatobenzene (1.50 g, 6.66 mmol) and triethylamine (2.11 mL, 15.1 mmol) in THF (15 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture was poured into saturated NaHCO3 solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution and brine, dried over MgSO4, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to provide N-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-4-(2-tert-butylphenyl)piperazine-1-carboxamide (2.65 g, 99%) as a off white solid.
