Abstract
A method for preparation of 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl)thio)phenyl)piperazine and its salts through a novel intermediate, 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)-N-hydroxybenzamide involves mild conditions, eco-friendly and cost effective reagents to provide the target compound with purity level greater than 99.5% in high yield.
Claims15
A method of preparation of 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl) thio) phenyl)piperazine and its salts, said method comprising acts of—
- a) preparing 2-Mercaptobenzoic acid (2) from 2,2′-disulfanediyldibenzoic acid(1) in a solvent in presence of base and metal catalyst,
- b) coupling 2-Mercaptobenzoic acid (2) with 1-Bromo-2,4-dimethylbenzene(4) to obtain 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)benzoic acid (5) in presence of metal catalyst,
- c) reacting 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)benzoic acid (5) with halogenating agent and hydroxyl amine hydrochloride to obtain 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)-N-hydroxybenzamide(6),
- d) heating 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)-N-hydroxybenzamide(6) in presence of base to obtain 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline and converting to 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline hydrochloride(7),
- e) reacting 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline hydrochloride(7) with Bis(2-chloroethyl)amine hydrochloride(8) to obtain 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl)thio) phenyl)piperazine hydrochloride(9), and
- f) converting 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl)thio)phenyl)piperazine hydrochloride (9) optionally to obtain 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl) thio) phenyl)piperazine or its salt.
A compound of formula (6)
A method of preparation of 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl) thio) phenyl)piperazine and its salts, said method comprising acts of
- a) heating 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)-N-hydroxybenzamide(6) in presence of base in a solvent to obtain 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline and converting to 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline hydrochloride(7),
- b) reacting 2-((2,4-dimethylphenyl)thio)aniline hydrochloride(7) with Bis(2-chloroethyl)amine hydrochloride(8) in a solvent to obtain 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl)thio) phenyl)piperazine hydrochloride(9), and
- c) converting 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl)thio)phenyl)piperazine hydrochloride(9) optionally to 1-(2-((2,4-Dimethylphenyl) thio) phenyl)piperazine or its salts.
