Reaction Steps

1-[4-(4-Butyl-phenyl)-piperidin-1-yl]-2-[trans-4-(4-nitro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenylamino)-cyclohexyloxy]-ethanone was prepared using a two-step synthesis. In the first step, 1-chloracetyl-4-(4-butyl-phenyl)-piperidine (also known as 1-[4-(4-butyl-phenyl)-piperidin-1-yl]-2-chloroethanone) was prepared with a 72% yield from 4-(4-butyl-phenyl)-piperidine (prepared in accordance with Example 9) and chloroacetyl chloride using the procedure illustrated in Example 4. In the second step, the 1-[4-(4-butyl-phenyl)-piperidin-1-yl]-2-[trans-4-(4-nitro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenylamino)-cyclohexyloxy]-ethanone was prepared from the 1-chloracetyl-4-(4-butyl-phenyl)-piperidine and trans-4-(4-nitro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenylamino)-cyclohexanol (prepared in accordance with Example 5) using the procedure illustrated in Example 11. This afforded the product as a yellow solid (36% yield). The structure was confirmed using Protocol II-A. Calculated mass=548; observed mass=548; HPLC retention time=4.92 min.
