Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-(5-chloro-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzoimidazol-1-yl)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.50 g, 4.3 mmol) and H2O/TFA 5% (15 mL) in CH2Cl2 (20 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, after which the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by gradient flash chromatography on silica gel (CH2Cl2 to EtOH), yielding an off-white/pinkish solid (0.97 g, 90%).
