4-Piperidinol, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl- → HCID 20492431, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

30 parts of 1,2,2,6,6,-pentamethylpiperidin-4-ol were dissolved in 250 parts of sodium added. The solution was heated overnight at reflux temperature and then cooled. 38 parts of 2-phenoxyethanol tosylate were added dropwise and the solution heated at reflux for 5 hours. On cooling the precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate evaporated in vacuo Treatment of the residue with dilute hydrochloric acid and then basification with dilute sodium hydroxide to a pH 10 was followed by extraction with ether. Evaporation afforded a pale yellow oil which was chromatographed on aluminum to give 4-(2'-phenoxyethoxy)-1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine as a colourless oil which gave the following elemental analysis by weight:
