Hydrochloric Acid → 2-benzyl 3-methyl (2S,3S,5R)-1-benzyl-5-hydroxypiperidine-2,3-dicarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-benzyl 3-methyl(2S,3S,5R)-1-benzyl-5-(1-ethoxyethoxy)piperidine-2,3-dicarboxylate (5.70 g, 0.0125 mol) in 100 mL of THF was added 20 mL of water followed by 20 mL of 1N HCl. The mixture was stirred at rt fro 1 h. After diluted with EtOAc, the mixture was neutralized with 1N NaOH, washed with brine, dried. The residue obtained after concentration was applied on silical, eluting with 0 to 50% EtOAc in hexane, to provide the alcohol compound (4.80 g, 89.6%). MS (ESI): (M+H)+=384.2.
