Hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate → Benzyl benzyl[cis(+/-)-3-methoxypiperidin-4-yl]carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 4 N hydrochloric acid/ethyl acetate solution (5 ml, 20 mmol) was added to a solution of tert-butyl cis(±)-4-{benzyl[(benzyloxy)carbonyl]amino}-3-methoxypiperidine-1-carboxylate obtained in Example (259b) (about 1.44 mmol) in methanol (1 mL). The mixture was stirred for one hour and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The reaction solution was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting compound was used for the next reaction without purification.
