Reaction Steps

To (R)-Piperidine-1,2-dicarboxylic acid 1-tert-butyl ester (5.1 g, 22.2 mmol) in DMF (60 mL) were added K2CO3 (12.3 g, 88.8 mmol) and MeI (1.7 mL, 26.6 mmol). After stirring at room temperature overnight, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer washed with water (6 times) and brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the title product (5.4 g, 99%).
