Procedure

3.56 g (12.9 mmol) of 3-(4-benzo[b]thiophen-4-yl-piperazin-1-yl)propan-1-ol was suspended in 30 ml of dichloromethane, and carbon tetrachloride (30 ml) and triphenyl phosphine (4.06 g, 15.5 mmol) were added thereto. The mixture was refluxed with heating for 3 hours. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, then methanol and dichloromethane were added thereto to homogenize the mixture. Silica gel (30 g) was added to the solution, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was loaded on silica gel column (300 g) and extracted with a solvent mixture of n-hexane:ethyl acetate=2:1. The extraction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 1-benzo[b]thiophen-4-yl-4-(3-chloropropyl)piperazine (2.36 g) as colorless oil.
