Ethanol → Carbamic acid, N-[1-(4-aminophenyl)-4-piperidinyl]-, 1,1-dimethylethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl (1-(4-nitrophenyl)piperidin-4-yl)carbamate (I74) (1.038 g, 3.230 mmol) was dissolved in dry DMF (15 mL), EtOAc (15 mL) and absolute EtOH (15 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen. 10% Pd/C (0.200 g) in EtOAc (5 mL) was added to the solution and the atmosphere was changed to hydrogen gas (balloon). The reaction was sealed with balloon and stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration through celite, which was washed with EtOAc (5×10 mL). The solvent was removed in vacuo to give a pink solid which was purified by silica gel chromatography using a gradient of 0-80% ethyl acetate in petroleum benzine 40-60° C. to give the title compound (I75) (0.730 g, 78%) as a purple-brown solid;
