Applications
Descriptionalpha,alpha-Diphenyl-4-piperidinomethanol is an important organic synthetic substance for the synthesis of diphenyl-4-piperidinomethanol. It is also used as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the preparation of terfenadine and Fexofenadine hydrochloride.
UsesAnxiolytic;H1 antagonist
Usesα-(4-Piperidyl)benzhydrol is a key intermediate in the synthesis of Fexofenadine (F322490). Fexofenadine EP Impurity E.
Preparation methods
PreparationUsing 4-piperidinic acid as a starting material, N-ethoxycarbonyl-4-piperidinic acid methyl ester was prepared by reacting it with ethyl chloroformate in a one-pot reaction involving esterification and amino protection. This methyl ester was then reacted with magnesium phenyl bromide to prepare N-ethoxycarbonyl-α,α-diphenyl-4-piperidinol, which was finally hydrolyzed with potassium hydroxide to obtain the target compound. This process utilizes inexpensive and readily available raw materials, has a short synthetic route, is simple to operate, and achieves an overall yield of 68.8%.
