Procedure

To a solution of (3S,4R)-4-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-3-hydroxymethyl-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.58 g, 5.11 mmol) in 30 ml DMF were added 0. 29 g (6.0 mmol) sodium hydride (50% in mineral oil) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 20 min. 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide (3.14 g, 10.2 mmol) was added. Stirring at room temperature for 2 h was followed by quenching with water and extraction with three portions of tert-butyl methyl ether. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography (silica gel, heptane/ethyl acetate) to give 3.4 g (>100%) of the title compound as a white solid.
