Procedure

The above 2-methyl-2-piperidin-4-yl-propionic acid ethyl ester (606 mg, 3.82 mmol) was mixed with 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (760 mg, 3.82 mmol) in 10 mL of tetrahydrofuran. To this solution was added diisopropylethylamine (1.33 mL). The mixture was heated in a microwave at 140° C. for 30 minutes. Solvents were evaporated and the residue was extracted with methylene chloride and water. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified using flash chromatography (eluting with ethyl acetate and hexanes) to give 2-methyl-2-(5′-nitro-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyridinyl-4-yl)-propionic acid ethyl ester as a solid (1.13 g, 92%). The NMR spectrum obtained on the sample is compatible with its structure.
