Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 1-(3-fluoro-4-nitrophenyl)pyridin-2(1H)-one (0.70 g, 2.99 mmol) in anhydrous THF (6 mL) at room temperature, a pre-mixed solution of 1-piperidineethanol (0.40 mL, 3.02 mmol) and NaH (60%, 157 mg, 3.92 mmol) in anhydrous THF (8 mL) was added. After addition, the suspension became clear. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. HPLC showed that the reaction was incomplete. Another pre-mixed solution of 1-piperidineethanol (0.40 mL, 3.02 mmol) and NaH (60%, 157 mg, 3.92 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) was added. After 1 h of stirring, the reaction was completed. H2O and EtOAc were added. The organic phase was separated, washed with 5% NaHCO3, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated in vacuo to give 1-(4-nitro-3-(2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethoxy)phenyl)pyridin-2(1H)-one (0.74 g).
