Participants

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonyl chloride (1.0 g, 3.2 mmol) was added to a mixture of (±)-1,1-dimethylethyl (2R,4S)-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate (1.00 g, 3.0 mmol) (obtained by conducting reagent preparation 28 in the presence of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate) and triethylamine (0.70 g, 7.0 mmol), in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL) at 0° C., and the resulting mixture was at room temperature for two hours. The reaction mixture was then quenched with a cold mixture of water and ethyl acetate. The organic portion was separated, washed with 5% sodium hydroxide, 0.5M hydrochloric acid, water then brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (5% to 75% ethyl acetate in hexanes gradient) to give (±)-1,1-dimethylethyl (2R,4S)-2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-4-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]piperidine-1-carboxylate (1.2 g, 88% yield). MS (EI) for C17H23F2NO5S: 392 (MH+).
