Reaction Steps

g 2) A solution of 11.7 g (35.3 mmol) of methyl (E)-[3-(4-ethyl-3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-1-methyl-piperidin-4-ylidene]acetate in 100 ml of methanol was treated with 500 mg of Pd on charcoal and hydrogenated with hydrogen at room temperature for 12 hours. The catalyst was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated. Chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate/methanol/NH4OH 200:10:1) yielded 9.14 g (77%) of methyl cis-[3-(4-ethyl-3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-1-methyl-piperidin-4-yl]-acetate as a colorless oil, Rf=0.23 (silica gel ethyl acetate methanol/NH4OH 200:10:1) and 2.56 g (21%) of methyl trans-[3-(4-ethyl-3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-1-methyl-piperidin-4-yl]-acetate as a colorless oil, Rf=0.12 (silica gel, ethyl acetate/methanol/NH4OH 200:10:1).
