Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-(phenylpiperidin-1-yl-methyl)cyclohexanone oxime (1.60 g, 5.6 mmol) in absolute tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added dropwise at 60° C., under argon, to a suspension of lithium aluminium hydride (425 mg, 11.2 mmol) in absolute tetrahydrofuran (50 ml), and stirring was carried out for 4 h at that temperature. After cooling, water (2 ml) and 4 N sodium hydroxide solution (0.5 ml) were added dropwise. The suspension was filtered, and the filtrate was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo.
