Isobutylene oxide → 1-(4-(6-Chloro-3-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl)-2-methyl-2-propanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1-(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)piperazine (0.600 g, 3.04 mmol) in methanol (1.5 mL) was added dropwise isobutylene oxide (0.274 mL, 3.04 mmol). The reaction was left to stir at room temperature overnight. An additional 0.15 equivalents of isobutylene oxide were added and the reaction was placed in a 55° C. oil bath overnight. Solvent was removed in vacuo. Silica gel chromatography (gradient elution 2 to 10% methanol in DCM) afforded compound 251 (0.450 g, 55.0% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 0.95-1.50 (m, 7 H) 2.23-3.61 (m, 9 H) 7.12-7.24 (m, 2 H) 8.03 (br. s., 1 H) ppm.
