Tert-butyl 4-[4-(6-methoxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)but-3-ynyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate → tert-butyl (Z)-4-[4-(6-methoxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)but-3-enyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butyl 4-[4-(6-methoxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)but-3-ynyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate (0.0902 g, 0.226 mmol) synthesized in Example B61, Step 3 in ethanol (5 mL) was added with Lindlar's catalyst (0.100 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, and then the filtrate was concentrated. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate) to obtain tert-butyl (Z)-4-[4-(6-methoxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)but-3-enyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate (0.0265 g, 29%).
