Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-acetoxy-1-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (2.63 g, 12.2 mmol, [prepared as described in Example 1] in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) is added bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)carbodiimide (4.52 g, 12.5 mmol) and the solution is heated to 52° C. under argon for 20 hours. The reaction mixture is evaporated and the residue chromatographed on silica gel with hexane-ethylacetate (5:1). The pure fractions are recrystallized from hexane to afford 1.87 g of the compound 10 as colorless crystals, mp. 144-147° C.
