The mixture was heated to reflux for 0.5 h. Then the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in HMPT (300 mL). Bromo-ethane (17.44, 0.16 mol) was added at 20° C. The mixture was stirred overnight at 20° C. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water and extracted with EtOAc (3×400 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silicagel column chromatography (Petroleum ether./EtOAc 2:1) to give ethyl 1-benzyl-4-(phenylamino)piperidine-4-carboxylate.
