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

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 5 mL of a dichloromethane solution containing 0.30 g of tert-butyl 4-amino-4-((methylamino)carbonyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate, 0.16 g of 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-carbaldehyde and 57 μL of acetic acid were added, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was added with 0.32 g of sodium triacetoxyborohydride and stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes. 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, the resultant solution was washed sequentially with water and an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was purified by silica gel column chromatography [eluent; chloroform:methanol=10:1] to obtain 0.31 g of a pale yellow oily substance, tert-butyl 4-((2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)amino)-4-((methylamino)carbonyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate.
