Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N,N-dibenzyl-2-methylpiperidin-4-amine (Intermediate 217, 880 mg, 3.0 mmol) in acetonitrile (6 mL) was added triethylamine (0.85 ml, 6.0 mmol) and 2-bromoethanol (0.32 mL, 4.5 mmol). The reaction is stirred at 70° C. at 300 watts in the microwave for 20 minutes. Acetonitrile was removed under reduced pressure, the residue was taken up in dichloromethane (100 mL) and saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (30 mL) and the aqueous phase was back extracted three times with dichloromethane (3×70 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. Chromatography of the residue on silica gel with dichloromethane/methanol (10:1) gave 660 mg (65% yield) of the product as an orange solid.
