Silica → Tert-butyl 4-[3-(acetylamino)phenyl]-1-piperidinecarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture tert-butyl 4-[3-(acetylamino)phenyl]-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-1-pyridinecarboxylate (710 mg) and 5% Pd/C (100 mg) in EtOH (10 mL) was hydrogenated (balloon technique) at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was passed through a pad of Celite 545 and the pad of Celite was washed with ethanol. The combined ethanol extracts were concentrated and chromatograghed, giving the desired product (660 mg): 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.80 (s, 1H), 7.41-7.20 (m, 3H), 6.94 (d, 1H, J=7.5 Hz), 4.21 (m, 2H), 2.75 (m, 2H), 2.62 (m, 1H), 2.16 (s, 3H), 1.78 (m, 2H), 1.56 (m, 2H), 1.48 (s, 9H).
