Triethylamine → 1-Boc-4-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-ylsulfonyl)piperazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-Boc-piperazine (250 mg, 1.34 mmol, 1 equiv.) was dissolved in dichloromethane (2.5 mL) and cooled in an ice bath under nitrogen atmosphere. Triethylamine (375 μl, 2.68 mmol, 2.0 equiv.) was added followed by portionwise addition of 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-sulfonyl chloride (346 mg, 1.48 mmol, 1.1 equiv.). The reaction was stirred in the ice bath for one hour, then quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (˜3 mL). The organic layer was washed twice with saturated ammonium chloride, once with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo and then purified on silica gel chromatography using a 95/5-5/95, hexane/EtOAc (v/v) gradient to give 1-boc-4-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-ylsulfonyl)piperazine as a white powder (516 mg, 89% yield).
