Reaction Steps

6-chloronicotinic acid ethyl ester (4.27 g, 23 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (30 ml), and potassium carbonate (4.77 g, 35 mmol) and 4-aminopiperidine (2.76 g, 28 mmol) were added thereto, followed by stirring at 80° C. for 3 hours and at 100° C. for 1 hour. After the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, water was added thereto, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and saturated sodium chloride, and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After the desiccant was filtered off, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, thereby obtaining 6-(4-aminopiperidin-1-yl)nicotinic acid ethyl ester (4.17 g, 73%) as a pale brown oil.
