To a solution of 4-Pyridin-2-ylmethyl-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (prepared from 1-Pyridin-2-ylmethyl-piperazine according to the literature: J. Med. Chem. (1993), 36, 2984) (2.00 g, 7.21 mmol) in THF (15 mL) was added n-BuLi (1.6 M in hexanes, 5.0 mL, 7.9 mmol) at −78° C. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 30 minutes. The solution was then cooled to −78° C. and a solution of diethyl ethoxymethylenemalonate (1.72 g, 7.93 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 0° C. over 1 hour and stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour. The reaction was poured into water and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (hexanes:EtOAc, 8:1 to 1; 1) to give 2-[2-(4-tert-Butoxycarbonyl-piperazin-1-yl)-1-ethoxy-2-pyridin-2-yl-ethyl]-malonic acid diethyl ester (2.40 g, 67%) as a mixture of diastereomers.

LCMS (APCI+) m/z 494 [M+H]+; Rt=3.62 min.
