Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3.6 g (1.03 mmol) 1-Benzyl-5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine-4-carboxylic acid (Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 2003, 2513-2518); hydrochloride, 16.6 mL HCl in methanol (1.25 N) in 250 mL methanol was stirred at room temperature over night. Further 16.6 mL HCl in methanol (1.25 N) was added and the mixture was stirred at 70° C. and subsequently hydrogenated with H2 over 360 mg Pd/C (10%) for 44 h at room temperature. The mixture was filtered off and evaporated to dryness to yield 2.3 g (94%) of the title compound as colorless oil. MS (m/e): 238.1 [(M+H)+].
