Reaction Steps

4-(2-Methoxy-ethyl)-2-oxo-1-propyl-piperidine-4-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (0.205 g) and 4-(trifluormethoxy)aniline (0.268 g) were dissolved in toluene (15 ml) under an argon atmosphere at RT. Dimethylaluminium chloride in hexane (1 molar in hexane, 3.02 ml) was added and the mixture was refluxed over night. The reaction mixture was then cooled to RT, water (1 ml) was added and the mixture was stirred at RT for 15 minutes. The solvent was removed in vacuo, the residue adsorbed on silica gel and purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluents: AcOEt/CH2Cl2, gradient from 0 to 50% then with AcOEt/heptane: 70%) to give the desired material (0.072 g) as a viscous light yellow oil. MS (ESI): 371.2 (MH−).
