Reaction Steps

A solution of 4.1 g (8.5 mmol) of 1-[3-(2-chlorophenyl)propyl]-4-[1-oxo-2-[(2-phenoxyphenyl)methoxy]ethyl]piperazine in 95 ml of dry ether was added dropwise, under nitrogen and with stirring, to a suspension of 1.26 g (33.1 mmol) of lithium aluminium hydride in 63 ml of dry ether. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and cooled to 5° C., after which 5 ml of water were added dropwise. The precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate evaporated. The crude product was dissolved in 15 ml of ethanol, to which 4 ml of 5 N HCl in ethanol was added. The precipitate was filtered off and recrystallized from 20 ml of ethanol. Yield 2.8 g (61%), m.p. 200° C.
