Sodium triacetoxyborohydride → HCID 71112545, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of piperidin-4-ylmethyl 2-hydroxy-2,2-diphenylacetate (0.4 g, 1.23 mmol) and 4-((5-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)pentyl)oxy)benzaldehyde (0.38 g, 1.44 mmol) in DCM (5 mL) was added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.388 g, 1.83 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate. The organic phase was dried (sodium sulfate), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with 1 to 10% methanol in ethyl acetate to afford the title compound as a colourless oil (0.50 g, 26%).
