Procedure

Bis(2-chloroethyl)amine hydrochloride (1.79 g, 10.03 mmol) and 4-fluoro-2-methylaniline (1.26 g, 10.07 mmol) were dissolved in 2-propanol (Volume: 10 mL) and stirred in a closed vial at 100° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with i-PrOH (10 mL) and cooled to 10° C. The resulting precipitate was filtered and purified using HPLC (10-80% ACN in water, TFA-buffered). The fractions were concentrated in vacuo, suspended in ether (3 mL) and treated with 4N HCl in dioxane (1 mL). The precipitate was filtered and dried in vacuum to afford 1-(4-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (150 mg, 0.561 mmol, 5.60% yield). ESI-MS: m/z 195 (M+H)+.
