Cannot reference System.IO.Pipes.dll in my project

I am trying to use Pipes in my Unity project, therefore I need to reference DLL System.IO.Pipes.dll. Also, these are some more info on my environment:

Unity 2018.1.5f1 Personal (64bit)
Windows 10 (64bit)

Using msc.rsp

Following the Unity doc on loading external assemblies, I have created the msc.rsp file inside my Assets/ directory:

 -r:System.IO.Pipes.dll

In my Assets/ folder I also have a C# file which needs pipes:

 using System;
 using System.IO;
 using System.IO.Pipes;
 
 public class CommunicationEndpoint : IDisposable
 {
     private NamedPipeServerStream host;
     ...
