Reaction Steps

3(R)-(Phenyl-propionyl-amino)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (169) (100 mg) was dissolved in a mixture of TFA-CH2Cl2 (1 ml, 20%) and stirred for 1 hr. After removal of solvent, the residue was dried under vacuum for 30 min and dissolved in 5 ml of CH2Cl2, washed with sat. K2CO3, dried (Na2SO4), filtered. After evaporation of the solvent, the residue was dissolved in CH3CN (1 ml). Then K2CO3 (125 mg, 3 eq), water (1 ml) and (2-bromoethyl)benzene (0.05 ml, 1.2 eq) was added. The mixture was heated at 70° C. for 12 hr. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with sat. NaHCO3 (5 ml), extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×10 ml). The combined organic layers were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (100% CH2Cl2, 2%-4%MeOH in CH2Cl2) to give 170 as a colorless oil. 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.40 (m, 3H), 7.10 (m, 2H), 4.80 (m, 1H), 0.20 (m, 1H), 4.00 (m, 1H), 2.40 (m, 2H), 1.95 (m, 3H), 1.61 (m, 1H), 1.51 (m, 1H), 1.50 (s, 9H), 1.30 (m, 1H), 1.00 (t, 3H) ppm; LRMS (calculated for C22H28N2O2)+ 336, found 336; IR (film) 2978, 2937, 2860, 1693, 1662, 1698, 1494, 1422, 1363, 1264, 1151, 1386, 1182 cm−1.
