Reaction Steps

4-(2-Amino-4-methyl-phenylamino)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (400 mg, 1.31 mmol), p-nitrophenyl 2,2-diethoxyproprionate (1.00 g, 3.50 mmol), and DMAP (1.00 g, 8.2 mmol) were combined in acetonitrile (3 mL) and heated in an oil bath at 80° C. for 2 h. The mixture was cooled, diluted with diethyl ether (100 mL), washed once each with saturated aqueous NH4Cl and water, three times with 5% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, once with brine and dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was adsorbed on a silica gel pad, and the pad was eluted with 25% ethyl acetate in hexanes to give 4-[2-(2,2-diethoxy-propionylamino)-4-methyl-phenylamino]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (550 mg, 0.81 mmol, 62%) of a pale yellow oil.
