Potassium Carbonate → HCID 66841294, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Piperidin-4-yl-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester 3 (5 g, 25 mmol), 1-(2-Hydroxy-ethyl)-piperidin-4-ol 22 (4 g, 27.5 mmol) and DIEA (5.6 ml, 32.5 mmol) are suspended in 25 ml of propionitril. Cyanomethyl-trimethyl-phosphonium iodide (4 g, 30 mmol) is added and the reaction mixture is refluxed. Additional portions of cyanomethyl-trimethyl-phosphonium iodide (1.5 g, 11.25 mmol) are added after 90 minutes and after 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, a solution of potassium carbonate (4 g) in 250 ml of water is added and the product is isolated by extraction with DCM. Evaporation under reduced pressure gave 6.9 g of a red oil which could be crystallized from ether.
