Reaction Steps

Into a 100 mL 3-necked round-bottom flask, was placed a solution of 2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl) thiazole (1.58 g, 7.94 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL). This was followed by the addition of n-BuLi (3.7 mL, 1.20 equiv) dropwise with stirring at −78° C. in 1 hr. After half-hour, the benzyl 4-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate (1.85 g, 7.94 mmol, 1.00 equiv) was added dropwise with stirring at −78° C. in 0.5 hr. The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h at −78° C. in a liquid nitrogen bath. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of 50 mL of water. The resulting solution was extracted with 3×100 mL of ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layers washed with 2×100 mL of brine, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by chromatography over a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:20-1:1). This resulted in 2 g (58%) of benzyl 4-(2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)thiazol-5-yl)-4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate as yellow oil.
