Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-piperidinemethanol (1.00 g) in dimethyl sulfoxide (28.9 mL), 2-chloropyrimidine (994 mg) and potassium carbonate (2.40 g) were added and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for three hours. After cooling the reaction mixture to room temperature, water was added to it and extraction was conducted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and after removing the desiccant by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give [1-([pyrimidin-2-yl)piperidin-4-yl]methanol as a colorless oil (1.50 g).
