Tert-butyl 4-(4-aminophenyl)-5,6-dihydropyridine-1(2H)-carboxylate → tert-Butyl 4-(4-aminophenyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-(4-amino-phenyl)-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyridine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (0.35 g, 1.2 mmol) (as prepared in the previous step) in methanol was hydrogenated over 10% Pd/C at 20 psi for 1 h. The solution was filtered and concentrated to give 0.35 g (100%) of the title compound as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ (ppm): 6.85 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 2H), 6.50 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 2H), 4.81 (s, 2H), 4.012 (m, 2H), 3.85 (br, 2H), 2.44 (m, 1H), 2.66 (m, 2H), 1.42 (m, 11H).
