Ethyl 4-piperidinecarboxylate → 5'-(3-iodo-4-methyl-phenylcarbamoyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2]bipyridinyl-4 carboxylic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-chloro-N-(3-iodo-4-methyl-phenyl)-nicotinamide (360 mg, 0.97 mmol), ethyl isonipecotate (460 mg, 2.91 mmol), diisopropylethyl amine (0.51 mL, 2.91 mmol) and a catalytic amount of DMAP in dioxane (15 mL) was heated at 120° C. in a sealed tube until consumption of the limiting reagent, as judged by TLC. The reaction mixture was then cooled and partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was then dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified with a silica gel column and 0-50% EtOAc in hexanes gradient to afford the product (360 mg, Yield 75%). HRMS m/z calcd for C21H24N3O3I [M+H]+: 494.0935. Found: 494.0935.
