Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-aminopiperidine (100 g, 1.00 mol) in dry methanol at 0° C., methyl acrylate (99.0 ml, 1.10 mol) was added dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After evaporation of the solvent, heptane was added to the residue, and the white solid (impurity) removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated to dryness to afford 80.0 g (43%) of the title compound as a yellow oil.
