Procedure

A suspension of 25.0 g of 4-piperidinone monohydrochloride monohydrate, 11.5 ml of chloroacetonitrile and 57.0 ml of diisopropylethylamine in 250 ml of tetrahydrofuran was refluxed for 10 hours. After the reaction, an insoluble matter was filtered off. The filtrate was added with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and extracted with a mixture of ethyl acetate and methanol (10:1). The extract was dried, and the solvent was evaporated to give brown crystals. The crystals were washed with a mixture of ethyl acetate and n-heptane to give 15.7 g of pale brown crystals.
