Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(4′-Benzyloxybiphenyl-4-yl)-4,4-diethoxy-piperidine (10.0 g, 23.2 mmol), acetone (100 ml) and a 5 N hydrochloric acid aqueous solution (35 ml) were mixed and heated under reflux for 5 hours. 1 N sodium hydroxide was added to the residue obtained by removing the solvent by distillation, followed by extraction with dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with water and then dried over sodium sulfate. After filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting crude crystal was washed with diethylether to afford the title compound as a white powder (7.2 g, yield 87%).
