Pyridine → HCID 17842560, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridine (1.12 ml) and trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride (875 μl) were added dropwise to a solution of 1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-4-hydroxy-4-(methoxycarbonyl-ethynyl)piperidine (490 mg) in dichloromethane (15 ml) at −78° C. After heating the mixture to room temperature in 1 hour, a saturated aqueous solution (50 ml) of sodium hydrogencarbonate and dichloromethane (10 ml) were added to the reaction mixture to separate an organic layer. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane:ethyl acetate=5:1→2:1) to obtain the title compound (249 mg) as a pale yellow oil.
