Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a cold (−90° C.) solution of 3-bromo pyridine (741 mg, 4.7 mmol) in freshly distilled THF (18 ml) was added LDA (2.0M, 2.6 mL, 5.2 mmol). The mixture was stirred under N2 for 20 min. A solution of 4-formyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (500 mg, 2.34 mmol) was added slowly to maintain the bath temperature below −80° C. The reaction was continued at below −80° C. for 30 min, warmed to −20° C. within 30 min and quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl (10 mL). Work-up and purification gave 4-[(3-bromo-pyridin-4-yl)-hydroxy-methyl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (610 mg, 70%) as colourless oil.
