Hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate → N-(2-bromoethyl)-3-(2-piperidin-4-ylethyl)benzamide hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

4 M hydrogen chloride/EtOAc solution (5 ml) was added to an EtOAc (15 ml) solution of the crude tert-butyl 4-[2-(3-{[(2-bromoethyl)amino]carbonyl}phenyl)ethyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate at room temperature, followed by stirring overnight. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain N-(2-bromoethyl)-3-(2-piperidin-4-ylethyl)benzamide hydrochloride (1.27 g) as a white solid.
