Ethyl 4-piperidinecarboxylate → HCID 20356908, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Following the procedure set out in Example 1, 3.0 parts of 3,3,3-triphenylpropionyl chloride and 2.0 parts of ethyl isonipecotate are reacted to provide 2-(3,3,3-triphenylpropionyl)-4-ethoxycarbonyl piperidine. Reduction of 5.0 parts of this material with 3.0 parts of lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran provides 1-(3,3,3-triphenylpropyl)-4-hydroxymethylpiperidine, melting at 142.5-144°. This compound has the following structural formula. ##STR45##
