Procedure

To a solution of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid ethyl ester (5.0 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 ml) were sequentially added potassium carbonate (6.2 g) and 1-(2-chloroethyl)piperidine (8.3 g), and the solution was stirred for 1.5 hours at 60° C. The solution was filtered through celite pad, extracted with ethyl acetate, then sequentially washed with water and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then the solvent was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by NH silica gel column chromatography (hexane-ethyl acetate system) to obtain 4-(2-piperidin-1-ylethoxy)benzoic acid ethyl ester (8.3 g). To a solution of 4-(2-piperidin-1-ylethoxy)benzoic acid ethyl ester (34 g) dissolved in ethanol (200 ml) was added an aqueous solution of 2N sodium hydroxide (100 ml), and the solution was refluxed for 1 hour. Ethanol was evaporated in vacuo, water was added and stirred, the solid that was precipitated by adding 2N hydrochloric acid (180 ml) was filtered to provide the title compound (28.2 g).
