p-Bromochlorobenzene → HCID 69479698, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of p-bromochlorobenzene (3.13 g, 16.3 mmol), tert-butyl (piperidin-4-yl)-N-methylcarbamate (3.5 g, 10.8 mmol), palladium acetate (73 mg, 0.33 mmol), (S)-(−)-BINAP (305 mg, 0.49 mmol) and sodium tert-butoxide (2.2 g, 22.9 mmol) in toluene (30 ml) was refluxed under a nitrogen atmosphere for 3 hours. Ethyl acetate and water were added to the reaction mixture, the mixture was stirred for a while. The insoluble substances were removed by filtration through Celite, and the filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride/ethyl acetate=10/1) to afford tert-butyl N-[1-(4-chlorophenyl)piperidin-4-yl]-N-methylcarbamate (4.7 g, yield 89%) as a yellow powder.
