The whole is subsequently stirred for a further 2 hours at 50°. After the addition of 50 ml of water, the whole is filtered over Hyflo and then washed with THF. The solvent is concentrated in a vacuum rotary evaporator and the residue is partitioned between ether and water. The ether phases are combined, dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated in a vacuum rotary evaporator. The residue is chromatographed over silica gel using chloroform/ethyl acetate (1:1) as eluant. Recrystallisation from ether/petroleum ether yields 2-[5-chloro-2-methoxy-4-(piperidin-1-yl)-phenyl]-ethanol having a melting point of 56°-57°.
