Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-bromo-N-methyl-benzenesulfonamide (Marvel; Smith, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 45, 1923, 2697) (1.00 g, 4.00 mmol) in THF (35 mL) at −78° C. was added MeLi (4.00 mmol) and the solution was stirred at −78° C. for 15 minutes. n-BuLi (1.95M in hexanes, 2.05 mL, 4.00 mmol) was then added. After the solution was stirred at −78° C. for 45 minutes, TMEDA (1.20 mL, 8.00 mmol) was added followed by a solution of 4-formyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (4.76 g, 22.30 mmol) in THF (5 mL), and the mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 1 hour. Work-up and purification gave 4-[hydroxy-(4-methylsulfamoyl-phenyl)-methyl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (622 mg, 41%) as a white foam.
