Procedure
In this example, 2.8 g of 1-[1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzoyl)-ethyl]-4-(2-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,3-benzoxazin-3-yl)-piperidine obtained in Example 5 is mixed with 150 ml of methanol. While the mixture is stirred at 0° to 10° C., 2 g of sodium borohydride is added thereto over a period of one hour. The mixture is further stirred for 3 hours at the same temperature and then stirred overnight at room temperature. The white crystals deposited are separated by filtration, washed with methanol and water and dried to obtain 1.90 g of a crude product. The crude product is recrystallized from ethanol to obtain 1.67 g of the desired product.
