Temperature: -40 °C

Procedure

NaBH4 (36 g, 1.0 mol) was added in portions to a solution of (S)-1-tert-butyl 2-ethyl 5-oxopiperidine-1,2-dicarboxylate (250 g, 0.92 mol) in EtOH (1500 mL) at −40° C. The reaction mixture was then stirred at −40° C. for 0.5 hr then quenched with 10% HOAc solution. After diluting with water, the mixture was extracted with DCM three times. The combined organic layer was concentrated in vacuum and purified by silica gel column chromatography (1:1 petroleum ether/EtOAc) to afford (2S,5S)-1-tert-butyl 2-ethyl 5-hydroxypiperidine-1,2-dicarboxylate (205 g, 80%) as a yellow oil.
