Procedure

200 mg (0.68 mmol) of tert-butyl (3RS,4RS)-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-hydroxy-piperidine-1-carboxylate and 159 mg (1.01 mmol) of 4-methoxybenzyl chloride were dissolved in 3 ml of dimethylformamide. 40 mg (1.01 mmol) of a 60% sodium hydride suspension were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, the organic phase was dried over magnesium sulphate and finally the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel with a 1:3 mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane as the eluent. There were obtained 250 mg (90% of theory) of tert-butyl (3RS,4RS)-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(4-methoxy-benzyloxy)-piperidine-1-carboxylate as a light yellow oil; MS: 358 (M-C4H9)+.
