After the calculated amount of hydrogen was taken up, the catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated. The reside was dissolved in 650 parts of dichloromethane. The solution was washed twice with 100 parts of a hydrochloric acid solution 5% and twice with 100 parts of water, dried filtered and evaporated. The residue was distilled, yielding 71.1 parts (81%) of ethyl 4-(3-oxopropyl)-1-piperidinecarboxylate; bp. 130°-135° C. at 133 Pa (int. 46).
