Sodium methanethiolate → HCID 68517449, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium thiomethoxide (805 mg, 11.5 mmol) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 3-bromo-4-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate (Intermediate 182, 3.20 g, 11.5 mmol) and THF (15 ml) at 0° C. The resultant mixture was allowed to slowly warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The reaction was quenched with water (15 ml) and diluted with ethyl acetate (150 ml). The organic phase was separated and washed with brine. The combined aqueous phase was back extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The combined organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by flash chromatography (hexanes/ethyl acetate, 7:1) to provide the title compound (2.4 g).
