Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl-4-hydroxymethylpiperidine (20 g) in dry pyridine (127 ml) was added p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (25.8 g) with ice-cooling, and the reaction mixture was kept overnight at the same temperature, diluted with ice water and extracted with diethyl ether dichloromethane. The extract was washed successively with water, dilute hydrochloric acid, aqueous sodium bicarbonate and again water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to give an oily residue which was crystallized from methanol to give N-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl-4-p-toluenesulfonyloxymethylpiperidine.
