Water → 4-[(Z)-2-cyano-2-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-vinyl]-phenyl [1,4']bipiperidinyl-1'-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

(Z)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acrylonitrile (compound 1) (0.28 g) and 4-piperidinopiperidinocarbonyl chloride (0.23 g) were dissolved in pyridine (5 ml), and the resultant solution was stirred for a whole day and night. After completion of reaction, the resultant reaction mixture was added to water (200 ml), and the thus-precipitated product was purified by means of silica gel chromatography employing a chloroform/methanol system, to thereby produce the target product (0.38 g, yield: 79%).
