Sodium ethoxide → HCID 19773558, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4.0 parts of N-hydroxypropanimidamide, 2.9 parts of sodiumethoxide, 94.8 parts of ethanol and 25.3 parts of molecular sieve was stirred for 15 min. at room temperature. There were added 7.5 parts of ethyl 4-[2-(4-piperidinyl)ethoxy]benzoate monohydrochloride and stirring was continued for 12 hours at reflux temperature. The cooled reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated. The residue was partitioned between water and dichloromethane. The organic layer was separated, dried, filtered and evaporated, yielding 6.5 parts (89.9%) of 4-[2-[4-(3-ethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-yl)phenoxy]ethyl]piperidine (interm. 7).
