Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 51.5 g of 2-(1-benzyl-4-methyl-4-piperidyloxy)-ethanol in 500 ml of absolute ethanol was reacted with hydrogen at 50° C in the presence of 5 g of 5% palladized charcoal until the theoretical amount of hydrogen was absorbed (about 31/2 hours) and the catalyst was then filtered off. The ethanol was evaporated and the residue was distilled under reduced pressure to obtain 24 g of 2-(4-methyl-4-piperidyloxy) -ethanol as a colorless oil boiling at 80°-86° C at 0.01 mm Hg and having a refractive index nD24 = 1.481.
