Borane dimethylsulfide in tetrahydrofuran (2M, 158 ml, 315 mmole) was added to a solution of cis-5-(2-methoxybenzylamino)-2-oxo-6-phenylpiperidine (19.6 g, 63.0 mmole) in tetrahydrofuran (500 ml) under nitrogen and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 18 hours. At the end of this period, the reaction mixture was cooled and the excess borane dimethylsulfide was cautiously decomposed by dropwise addition of methanol. The contents of the reaction mixture were then concentrated under vacuum. Ethanol (500 ml) and powdered potassium carbonate (17.5 g, 126 mmole) were added to the residue and the reaction mixture was heated at reflux (18 hours). Then the reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum and the residue was extracted with methylene chloride (4×250 ml) and dried (anhydrous magnesium sulfate). The organic solvents were removed under vacuum to afford a residue which was dissolved in a minimum amount of methylene chloride. To this solution was added excess hydrochloric acid/ether, thus precipitating the dihydrochloride salt of cis-3-(2-methoxybenzylamino)-2-phenylpiperidine, which was isolated by filtration. This was heated at reflux in chloroform (400 ml) for 3 hours and filtered to give the essentially pure hydrochloride salt of the title compound (22.4 gms, m.p. 245° C., 96%), which was crystallized from a mixture of hot methanol-ethanol to afford a white crystalline solid (19.2 gms, 83%).
