Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of N-acetyl-4-hydroxypiperidine (7.1 g, 0.050 mol), 4-nitrophenol (7.1 g, 0.050 mol), PPh3 (16.3 g, 0.062 mol), and THF (50 mL) was added a solution of diethyl azodicarboxylate (10.8 g, 0.062 mol) in THF (16 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 48 hours, and then concentrated. The crude mixture was purified by flash chromatography (1% MeOH/EtOAc) to give 4.5 g (30%) of N-acetyl-4-(4-nitrophenoxy)piperidine as a yellow oil: 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 8.10 (d, 2H) 7.05 (d, 2H), 4.80 (m, 1H) 3.80 (m, 1H), 3.65 (m, 1H), 3.15 (m, 1H), 3.00 (m, 1H), 2.00 (s, 3H), 1.90 (m, 2H), 1.65 (m, 1H), 1.50 (m, 1H).
