The reaction conditions taught by A. E. Moormann, Syn. Comm., 23(6), 789-795 (1993) were used in the following preparation. To a stirred solution of 4.8 grams (0.030 mole) of ethyl piperidin-4-ylcarboxylate and 4.9 grams (0.030 mole) of 4-(2-propen-1-yloxy)benzaldehyde in 50 mL of ethanol was added 3.8 mL (0.030 mole) of borane-pyridine complex. Upon completion of addition, the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for about 18 hours. The reaction mixture was then taken up in water and extracted with methylene chloride. The organic layer was washed with water and dried with magnesium sulfate. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure, yielding 9.0 grams of ethyl N-[4-(2-propen-1-yloxy)phenylmethyl]piperidin-4-ylcarboxylate. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
