1-Benzyl-4-(N-Boc-amino)piperidine → 4-(N-Boc-amino)piperidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-benzyl-4-tertbutyloxycarbonylaminopiperidine 5 (7.95 g; 27.4 mmol) in 120 ml of MeOH is poured into a hydrogenation reactor. 10% Pd/c-based catalyst is added (1.46 g; 1.38 mmol) and the mixture is subjected to a hydrogen pressure of 3.5 bars (50 psi) for 24 hours in a Parr type shaker. After filtration on celite and washing with methanol, the medium is concentrated in order to produce 4.98 g (Yield=91%) of product in the form of white crystals.
