2,3-Dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-carbaldehyde → Tert-butyl (1-(2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl)carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 20 mL of a chloroform solution containing 2.17 g of 1,4-benzodioxane-6-carbaldehyde and 2.67 g of tert-butyl (piperidin-4-yl)carbamate, 0.76 mL of acetic acid was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was added with 4.27 g of sodium triacetoxyborohydride, and stirred overnight. Thereto was added an aqueous saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, and the organic layer was separated. The organic layer was washed with an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was purified by silica gel column chromatography [silica gel; Silica gel 60 manufactured by Kanto Chemical Co., Inc., eluent; ethyl acetate:hexane=5:1] to obtain 2.96 g of tert-butyl (1-(2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)-piperidin-4-yl)carbamate.
