Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 1 L 4-neck round bottom flask was added LAH (9.42 g, 248 mmol) in dry THF (1000 mL) and the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. A solution of methyl 4-amino-1-benzylpiperidine-4-carboxylate (47.0 g, 165 mmol) in dry THF (250 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and quenched with water and filtered. The solid was washed with 50 ml of ethyl acetate. The organic layer of the filtrate was separated, washed with 2×200 ml portions of water and 200 ml of brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the title compound.
