Ethanol → tert-Butyl 4-aminopiperidine-1-carboxylate--hydrogen chloride (1/1)

Participants

Reaction Steps

The compound (837 mg, 2.53 mmol) obtained in step B was added to ethanol (20 ml), hydrazine monohydrate (0.31 ml, 6.4 mmol) was added, and the mixture was heated under reflux for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled, and diethyl ether was added to allow precipitation of a solid. The precipitated solid was filtered, and the obtained solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a colorless oil. The oil was dissolved in diethyl ether, 4N hydrochloric acid-dioxane solution (1 ml) was added at room temperature and the mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate to allow precipitation of a solid. This was filtered, washed with ethyl acetate, and dried under reduced pressure to give the title compound (598 mg, yield 100%) as a colorless solid.
