Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.08 g of (1-benzylpiperidin-4-ylidene)ethanol in vinyl ethyl ether (30 ml) was added in a nitrogen atmosphere 0.107 g of mercurous trifluoroacetate. After stirring at room temperature for 18 hours, 10 ml of a 10% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide was added thereto and the resulting mixture was extracted with n-hexane (50 ml). The organic layer was washed with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (3×10 ml), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to thereby give 1.153 g of the title compound as a colorless oily substance.
