Benzyl 4-(Isopropylcarbamoyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate → N-Isopropylpiperazine-1-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of benzyl 4-(isopropylcarbamoyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (3, 3.94 g, 12.9 mmol) in methanol (100 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (50% wet, 0.400 g) and the mixture was stirred under 1 atmosphere of hydrogen for 16 h. After this time, the mixture was filtered through Celite and the filtrate concentrated to afford the title compound (2.88 g, >99%): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CD3OD) δ 4.00-3.80 (m, 1H), 3.45-3.35 (m, 4H), 2.88-2.78 (m, 4H), 1.13 (d, J=6.5 Hz, 6H); Multimode MS m/z 172 [M+H]+.
