Hydrochloric Acid → Piperidine,4-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-1-(1h-indol-5-ylcarbonyl)-

Participants

Reaction Steps

Indole-5-carboxylic acid (18 mg, 0.11 mmole) and 4-(4-chlorobenzoyl) piperidine hydrochloride (26 mg, 0.1 mmole) were dissolved in 5 ml dichloromethane. To this solution was added triethylamine (1 eq. to neutralize the HCl salt) catalytic DMAP and EDCI (33 mg, 0.11 mmole). The reaction mxture was stirred at room temperature overnight and then worked up by washing sequentially with 1N HCl, saturated sodium bicarbonate, and saturated sodium chloride. The compound was then purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (40:1 CHCl3/MeOH). 1H NMR (300 Mhz, CDCl3) δ 8.45 (s, 1H), 7.88 (d, 2H), 7.72 (s, 1H), 7.45 (d, 2H), 7.38 (d, 1H), 7.24 (s, 2H), 6.58 (s, 1H), 3.42 (m, 1H), 3.11 (m, 2H), 1.83 (m, 4H), 1.60 (m, 2H).
