title: Synthesis of new (benzimidazolyl)piperazines with affinity for the 5-HT1A receptor via Pd(0) amination of bromobenzimidazoles.
abstract: The synthesis of a new family of (benzimidazolyl)piperazines has been developed through Pd(0) mediated amination of 4- and 6-bromobenzimidazole derivatives. Preliminary studies showed that some of these compounds are potent 5-HT1A receptor ligands.
