Water → 1-Diphenylmethylpiperidine-4-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Step 1): Bromodiphenylmethane (2.5 g, 0.01 mol) in DMF (10 ml) was added dropwise at 0°-5° C. to a mixture of isonipecotamide (1.3 g, 0.01 mol) and K2CO3 (1.4 g) in DMF (25 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 hours at 0°-5° C., then poured into water. The mixture was extracted with ethylether, then the extract was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to give 1-diphenylmethylpiperidine-4-carboxamide (66%): mp 150° C.
