The solution was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The
combined organic layers were washed with sd aq NaHCO3, brine,
dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated in vacuo, and purified by
flash chromatography on silica gel column (elution with PE/EtOAc =
8:1) to give 1-(3-bromobenzyl)-4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)piperazine (27)

7-(3-((4-(2,3-Dichlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)-
phenoxy)-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one (25). To a solution of
7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one (196 mg, 1.2 mmol) in
NMP was added Cs2CO3 (391 mg, 1.2 mmol). The slurry was
degassed by evacuating and filling the reaction flask with N2 three
times. Compound 27 (240 mg, 0.6 mmol) and TMHD (11 mg, 0.06
mmol) were added, followed by the addition of CuCl (60 mg, 0.6
mmol). The reaction mixture was degassed by evacuating and filling
the reaction flask with N2 three times and then warmed to 120 °C
under N2 for 7.5 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to rt and diluted
with Et2O. The slurry was filtered, and the filtercake was washed with
Et2O. Combined filtrates were washed with 2 N HCl, 0.6 N HCl, 2 M
NaOH, and 10% aq NaCl. The resulting organic layer was dried,
concentrated, and purified by flash chromatography on a silica gel
column (elution with PE/EtOAc = 1:1) to give 7-(3-((4-(2,3-
dichlorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)phenoxy)-3,4-dihydro quinolin-
