Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 143 mg of t-butyl(3R)-3-(2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)tetrahydropyridine-1(2H)-carboxylate in 5 ml of tetrahydrofuran, 30 mg of litiumaluminum hydride was added under cooling with ice, followed by 20 minutes' stirring at the same temperature. To the reaction liquid sodium sulfate decahydrate was added, stirred for 12 hours and filtered with Celite. Distilling the solvent off under reduced pressure, 118 mg of the title compound was obtained.
