Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 17.0 g. (0.049 mole) of 1-(indol-3-ylglyoxyloyl)-4-phenyl-4-piperidinol in 100 ml. of tetrahydrofuran was reduced in the usual way with 7.4 g. (0.195 mole) of lithium aluminum hydride in 200 ml. of tetrahydrofuran. After the usual workup 11.6 g. of oil was obtained which was crystallized from benzene-isooctane yielding 8.6 g. (55%) of product which melted at 133°-137° C. Another recrystallization from benzene raised the melting point to 137°-139° C. The analytical sample melted at 137°-139° C.
