Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the product of step 1 (90 mg) in dichloromethane (6 ml) were added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (170 mg), 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (70 mg) and acetic acid (0.02 ml) and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 24 hour. Water and ethyl acetate were added to the reaction mixture, the organic layer was separated and washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, and dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with dichloromethane-methanol (95:5) to give 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-[4-(5,11-dihydro-7-methoxy[1]benzoxepino[2,3-b]pyridin-5-ylidene)buten-2-yl]piperidin-4-ol (110 mg).
