Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of N-Boc-4-piperidinemethanol (1.0 g, 4.50 mmol) in DMSO (2 mL) was added dropwise to a suspension of NaH (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 0.27 g, 6.76 mmol) in DMSO (4 mL). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h, then 30 minutes at 50° C. The mixture was allowed to cool to ambient temperature, and a solution of 2,5-dibromopyridine (1.12 g, 4.73 mmol) in DMSO (4 mL) was added dropwise, and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature overnight, poured in water, then extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated to give the crude product as an amber oil. The crude product was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column eluted with 1:8 EtOAc/hexane to give 1.40 g (84%) of 1,1-dimethylethyl 4-{[(5-bromo-2-pyridinyl)oxy]methyl}-1-piperidinecarboxylate as a white solid after standing. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.16 (d, 1H, J=2.2 Hz), 7.64 (dd, 1H, Ja=8.7 Hz, Jb=2.3 Hz), 6.64 (d, 1H, J=8.8 Hz), 7.04 (d, 2H, J=8.8 Hz), 4.20-4.10 (m, 4H), 2.80-2.65 (m, 2H), 2.00-1.85 (m, 1H), 1.85-1.70 (m, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H), 1.30-1.20 (m, 2H); LRMS (ESI), m/z 371/373 (M+H).
