(R)-2-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)-6-nitrobenzonitrile → (R)-2-amino-6-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)benzonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-2-((1-butyrylpiperidin-2-yl)methoxy)-6-nitrobenzonitrile (Example 16b, 1.5 g, 4.53 mmol) in ethanol (40 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (300 mg). The reaction mixture was charged with hydrogen balloon at room temperature overnight then filtered through celite and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by Biotage SP-1 (40s column) eluting with EtOAc/Hexane (10%-70%) to give the desired product as an oil (1.1 g, 81%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 0.86 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H), 1.46-1.65 (m, 7H), 1.77-1.85 (m, 1H), 2.24-2.30 (m, 1H), 2.38-2.42 (m, 1H), 2.56-2.63 (m, 0.5H), 3.1-3.16 (m, 0.5H), 3.71-3.74 (m, 0.3H), 3.92-3.98 (m, 1H), y 2H), 7.15-7.19 (m, 1H). MS 302 (MH+).
