Hydrochloric Acid → 1-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidin-4-amine(SALTDATA: 1.98HCl 0.75H2O)

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(p-fluorobenzyl)-4-phthalimidopiperidine (3.0 g, 8.9 mmol) in ethanol (30 ml) was added hydrazine monohydrate (0.7 ml) and the mixture was heated under reflux for 3 hours. After allowed to cool, to the reaction mixture was added 5N hydrochloric acid (50 ml) and insolubles were filtered off. Then, the filtrate was washed with chloroform (30 ml×3). The aqueous layer was neutralized with potassium carbonate and then extracted with chloroform (50 ml×4). After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off to give 1.7 g of the title compound. Yield=94%.
