Procedure

To a suspension of ethyl 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzoate (19.6 g, 0.1 mol) and potassium carbonate (28 g, 0.2 mol) in dry DMF (200 ml) was added 4-(4-methylphenylsulphonyloxymethyl)-1-tert-butyloxycarbonylpiperidine (40 g, 0.11 mol). After stirring at 95° C. for 2.5 hours, the mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and partitioned between water and ethyl acetate/ether. The organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The resulting oil was crystallised from petroleum ether and the suspension was stored overnight (at 5° C.). The solid was collected by filtration, washed with petroleum ether and dried under vacuum to give ethyl 3-methoxy-4-(1-tert-butyloxycarbonylpiperidin-4-ylmethoxy)benzoate (35 g, 89%).
