Acetic Acid → HCID 28411268, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

(Trimethylsilyl)diazomethane (2.0 M solution in hexane, 2.7 mL, 5.40 mmol) was added to a mixed solution of 1-(4-cyanophenyl)piperidine-4-carboxylic acid (1.13 g, 4.91 mmol) in THF (13 mL) and methanol (6.5 mL) (2:1, v/v), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Acetic acid (appropriate amount) was added to the reaction solution to stop the reaction. Then, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. A saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution was added to the obtained residue, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The obtained organic layer was washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography [elute: hexane/ethyl acetate=80/20] to obtain the title compound (1.06 g, yield: 88%).
