Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (S)-6-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-2,2-dimethylpiperidin-4-one (0.28 g, 0.96 mmol) in MeOH (40 mL) was added acetic acid (0.055 mL, 0.96 mmol) and palladium hydroxide (0.13 g, 0.96 mmol). After degassing, the mixture was stirred overnight under hydrogen. The mixture was filtered through the celite, washed with MeOH (20 mL), and concentrated in vacuo to give 0.11 g (67%) of (S)-6-((S)-1-hydroxyethyl)-2,2-dimethylpiperidin-4-one which was used in the next step without purification.
