Reaction Steps

A solution of piperidin-4-yl-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (2.45 g, 12.22 mmol, 2.0 eq), 6-methoxy-4H-1-thia-9-aza-phenanthren-3-one (1.50 g, 6.11 mmol, 1.0 eq) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (526 mg, 3.06 mmol, 0.5 eq) in toluene (50 mL) is heated at 120° C. for 2 hours. The resulting solution is cooled down to room temperature, solvent is removed and the crude is dissolved in dichloromethane (100 mL) and methanol (100 mL) before the addition of acetic acid (0.5 mL, 8.66 mmol, 1.4 eq) and sodium cyanoborohydride (1.24 g, 19.73 mmol, 3.2 eq). After 1 h 30 stirring at room temperature, the reaction mixture is extracted with dichloromethane (3×50 mL) and a saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate aqueous solution (50 mL). The combined organic layers are dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a residue that is purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluent: petroleum ether:ethyl acetate:ammonia-7N solution in methanol, 1:1:0.05, v/v/v) to afford [1-(6-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-thia-9-aza-phenanthrene-3-yl)-piperidin-4-yl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester as a light yellow solid (746 mg, 28% yield).
