Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 3-amino-5-chloro-2-methylbenzoate (1.40 g, 7.04 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (30 mL) and AcOH (2.50 g, 42.2 mmol) was added N-Boc piperidinone (1.96 g, 9.85 mmol) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (4.40 g, 21.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 23° C. for 18 hours and then saturated NaHCO3 was added and the mixture was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×20 mL) and the combined organic layers were concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (SiO2 heptane/ethylacetate=10/1 to 1/1) to give the titled compound as oil (2.40 g, 89% yield). 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δppm; 7.09 (s, 1H), 6.69 (s, 1H), 4.05 (m, 2H), 3.88 (s, 3H), 3.63 (m, 1H), 3.42 (m, 1H), 2.97 (m, 2H), 2.23 (s, 3H), 2.05 (m, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H), 1.27 (m, 2H).
