In a round-bottomed, single-necked, 100-mL flask were placed 4-(4-bromophenyl)piperidine (500.0 mg, 2.08 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.36 mL, 2.08 mmol), 3-oxetanone (0.27 mL, 4.16 mmol), and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (1544.5 mg, 7.3 mmol) in THF (15 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. Then, it was quenched with water and the organic layers extracted with EtOAc (3×5 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (2×5 mL) and brine (1×5 mL), dried (Na2SO4), concentrated, and purified by flash chromatography (100% Hexane to 100% EtOAc) to give 350.0 mg (57%) of 4-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(oxetan-3-yl)piperidine.
