Participants

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution of 2N sodium hydroxide (20 ml) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 4-[4-chloro-2-(methoxycarbonyl) phenoxy]piperidine-1-carboxylate (8.1 g, 22.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (70 ml) at 45° C. The mixture was stirred vigorously for 3 h then adjusted to pH 2 with 2N hydrochloric acid. The product was extracted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer washed repeatedly with water until the washings were pH 6. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated. The residue was azeotroped with toluene to give the title compound as a colourless solid (7.5 g).
