The reaction was cooled to 0° C. and quenched by addition of aqueous ammonium chloride and the mixture filtered through celite. The filtrate was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, separated and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was evaporated to give 3-hydroxymethyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.25 g). To a solution of this alcohol (422 mg) in THF (8 mL) was added sodium hydride (94 mg; 60% dispersion in mineral oil). After 15 min iodomethane (0.49 mL) was added and the reaction stirred for 18 h. The mixture was then diluted with ethyl acetate and washed sequentially with water, brine, separated and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was evaporated and the residue purified by flash chromatography to give 3-methoxymethyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (414 mg). To a solution of 3-methoxymethyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (204 mg) in DCM (3 mL) was added 2M hydrogen chloride in diethyl ether and the mixture stirred for 18 h. The solvent was evaporated to give the desired amine (168 mg).
