Ammonium formate → HCID 10103419, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of the product of step B (600 mg, 2.4 mmol) in methanol (15 mL) was added 10% palladium on carbon (60 mg) and ammonium formate (1.26 g, 20.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 2 h, cooled to ambient temperature then filtered through Celite. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford methyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-2-carboxylate (470 mg, 95%) as a colorless oil which was carried forward without purification: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 3.76-3.74 (m, 4H), 3.44-3.41 (m, 1H), 3.26-3.21 (m, 1H), 2.70-2.63 (m, 1H), 2.33-2.28 (m 1H), 1.91-1.90 (m, 1H), 1.50-1.40 (m, 2H).
