Formaldehyde → 1-Methylpiperidine-2-carboxylic acid

Into a 25 ml 3-necked round bottom flask, was placed piperidine-2-carboxylic acid (975 mg, 7.56 mmol), HCHO (2.0 ml) and HCOOH (2.6 ml). The resulting solution was allowed to react, with stirring, for 5 hours while the temperature was maintained at reflux. The reaction progress was monitored by LCMS. The mixture was then concentrated by evaporation under vacuum using a rotary evaporator. The residue was triturated with 30 ml of Et2O to provide 1-methylpiperidine-2-carboxylic acid of as a white solid (0.5 g, 41%).
