Procedure

To a stirred solution of 152 parts of 3-methyl-1-(phenylmethyl)-4-piperidinone in 900 parts of methylbenzene were added dropwise 218 parts of ethyl carbonochloridate at room temperature. Upon completion, stirring was continued overnight at reflux. After cooling, the reaction mixture was washed with water and hydrochloric acid, dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was distilled, yielding 120.5 parts (83%) of ethyl 3-methyl-4-oxo-1-piperidinecarboxylate; bp. 98°-105° C. at 1 mm pressure (intermediate 26).
