Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 121.6 g (0.35 mol) of 1-benzyl-4-(4-bromo-phenyl)-piperidin-4-ol and 121.6 g of p-toluenesulphonic acid monohydrate (0.64 mol) in 1200 ml of toluene was heated to reflux on a water separator for 4.5 hours. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and adjusted to pH 10 with 3N sodium hydroxide solution. Thereafter, the mixture was extracted firstly with 200 ml and then with 500 ml of methylene chloride. The combined organic phases were washed twice with 100 ml of water each time, dried over magnesium sulphate and then evaporated under reduced pressure. There were obtained 109.1 g (99% of theory) of 1-benzyl-4-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine as a yellowish solid; MS: 328, 330 (M+H)+.
