Tetrapropylammonium → 1-(3-Isopropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-YL)piperidin-4-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-[3-(Propan-2-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]piperidin-4-ol (0.5 g) is dissolved in dichloromethane (75 mL) and 4 A molecular sieves (4 g) are added followed by N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (1.52 g) and tetrapropylammonium perrhutenate (0.018 g) and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction is then filtered through celite and the mother liquor washed with water (2×50 mL). The water layers are then combined and back extracted with dichloroemthane (100 mL). The dichloromethane layers are combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the title compound. LC (method 20): tR=1.67 min; Mass spectrum (APCI): m/z=210 [M+H]+.
