Reaction Steps

A mixture of (R)-tert-butyl 3-((R)-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-hydroxyethyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (2.5463 g, 7.49 mmol), 60% NaH (2.120 g, 53 mmol), and (2-bromoethoxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane (7.820 g, 32.7 mmol) in THF was heated at 80° C. for 25 h and then cooled to rt. The reaction mixture was then quenched with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×), dried over Na2SO4. After the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, crude (R)-tert-butyl 3-((R)-1-(2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethoxy)-1-(3-chlorophenyl)ethyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate was used directly in the next step without further purification.
