Procedure
A mixture of 10 parts of ethyl 4-[N-(4-chlorophenyl)-N-(phenylacetyl)amino]-1-piperidinecarboxylate and 125 parts of glacial acetic acid, previously saturated with gaseous hydrogen bromide, is heated for 9h.45 at 62° C., while stirring. The reaction mixture is cooled and glacial acetic acid is evaporated in vacuo. The semi-solid residue is taken up in 150 parts of water, alkalized with a concentrated sodium hydroxide solution and the product is extracted with trichloromethane. The extract is dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated. The oily residue is triturated in 56 parts of 1,1'-oxybisethane and the solid crude free base is filtered off. It is converted into the hydrochloride salt in the conventional manner in 1,1'-oxybisethane and 2-propanone, yielding 4 parts of N-(4-chlorophenyl)-N-(4-piperidinyl)benzeneacetamide hydrochloride; mp. 206.5° C.
