Reaktionsschritte

1-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-4-(4-methylphenylsulphonyloxymethyl)piperidine (40 g, 0.11 mol), (prepared as described for the starting material in Example 1), was added to a suspension of ethyl 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoate (19.6 g, 0.1 mol) and potassium carbonate (28 g, 0.2 mol) in dry DMF (200 ml). After stirring at 95° C. for 2.5 hours, the mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and partitioned between water and ethyl acetate/ether. The organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The resulting oil was crystallised from petroleum ether and the suspension was stored overnight at 5° C. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with petroleum ether and dried under vacuum to give ethyl 4-(1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)piperidin-4-ylmethoxy)-3-methoxybenzoate (35 g, 89%).
