Procedure

To a solution of 1-BOC-4-piperidone (3.5 g, 17.5 mmol) in methanol (10 mL) was added a solution of 2M methylamine in methanol (13 mL, 26 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 16 hours and then sodium cyanoborohydride (1.1 g, 17.5 mmol) was added. After stirring for 2 hours the reaction mixture was then diluted with dichloromethane, washed with sodium bicarbonate solution, dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography using 10% methanol in dichloromethane as the eluent to yield 4-methylamino-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.72 g, 46%).
