2,3-Dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-carbaldehyde → Tert-butyl 4-((2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)amino)-4-methylpiperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 5 mL of a dichloromethane solution containing 0.50 g of tert-butyl 4-amino-4-methylpiperidine-1-carboxylate, 0.38 g of 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-carbaldehyde and 0.13 mL of acetic acid were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was added with 0.74 g of sodium triacetoxyborohydride and stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was added with 0.74 g of sodium triacetoxyborohydride and stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes, and then the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour under reflux by heating. Thereto were added chloroform and an aqueous saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution. The organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer and the extract were combined, and the resultant solution was washed with an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain 0.81 g of a light brown oily substance, tert-butyl 4-((2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)amino)-4-methylpiperidine-1-carboxylate.
