Water → 1-(3-Methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)piperidin-4-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of piperidin-4-ol (2.79 g, 28 mmol) and potassium carbonate (3.88 g, 28 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (40 mL), 4-Fluoro-2-methoxy-1-nitro-benzene (4.0 g, 23 mmol) is added and stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The mixture is poured into water and the precipitate is collected by a filtration. The resulting solid is dried in vacuo at 50° C. to afford 1-(3-methoxy-4-nitro-phenyl)-piperidin-4-ol (5.23 g) as yellow solids in 89% yield.
