Triethylamine → 2-(4-((Tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)piperidin-1-yl)ethyl methanesulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of tert-butyl [1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperidin-4-yl]carbamate (Intermediate 7, 1.7 g, 7 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (20 mL) and triethyl amine (1.4 mL, 9.8 mmol) was treated at 0° C. with methanesulfonyl chloride (0.65 mL, 8.4 mmol). After 45 minutes the reaction was complete by TLC (chloroform/methanol 6:1, rf 0.54). Potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7, 1M, 50 mL) was added, dichloromethane was removed under reduced pressure and it was extracted with ice-cold ethyl acetate (2×100 mL) and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude preparation of the mesylate was used without delay for the next step.
