Reaktionsschritte

A solution of lithium aluminium hydride in tetrahydrofuran (1.0M solution, 2 ml, 2.0 mmol) was added over ten minutes to a well stirred solution of 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-[(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)oxymethyl]piperidine-6-one (0.41 g, 0.96 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (7 ml), maintaining the temperature below 25° C. The reaction solution was stirred for 2 hours and then quenched first of all with water (0.16 ml), then with 15% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (0.1 ml), and finally with water again (0.4 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 0.5 hours to complete the precipitation, diluted with dichloromethane (30 ml) and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to give the title product with a trans/cis ratio=72:28. Yield 90%.
