Sodium Methoxide → HCID 86656364, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-tert-Butyl 3-methyl (3S,4S)-4-phenylpiperidine-1,3-dicarboxylate (1.00 g) was dissolved in methanol (40 ml), and thereto was added sodium methoxide (1.0 M methanol solution, 4.70 ml), and the mixture was refluxed for 9 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled, and concentrated under reduced pressure. To the residue was added a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (the developing solvent: hexane/ethyl acetate=5/1) to give the title compound (585 mg).
