A solution of 1.47 g of the above product III in a mixture of 10 mL of methanol and 2 mL of acetic acid was cooled with ice and treated with 0.76 g of sodium cyanoborohydride. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h, and the excess borohydride was decomposed by addition, with ice cooling, of 8 mL of conc hydrochloric acid. After stirring at room temperature for 0.5 h the mixture was made basic with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted with methylene chloride. Removal of the solvent from the dried solution and crystallization of the residue from ethyl acetate gave 0.98 g of 4-phenyl-α,α,1-trimethyl-4-piperidinemethanol, m.p. 146°-147°. NMR (220 MHz in CDCl3): τ 2.7-2.8 (m, 5H); 7.0-8.2 (m, 9H); 8.0 (s, 3H) and 8.9 (s, 6H). Anal. Calcd. for C15H23NO: C, 77.21; N, 9.94; N, 6.00. Found: C, 77.12; H, 9.89; N, 6.00.
