Procedure

To a solution of 1-benzyl-4-piperidone (213 g, 1.13 mol) in toluene (700 ml) was added pyrrolidine (190 ml, 2.25 mol), the reaction mixture was fitted with a Dean-Stark head and heated to 150° C. for 18 h. The reaction mixture was cooled and evaporated under reduced pressure, p-toluenesulphonic acid (4.0 g, 0.022 mol) was then added to the residue followed by acrylamide (160 g, 2.25 mol). The reaction mixture was heated with rapid stirring to 90° C. for 1.5 h and then for a further 2 h at 120° C. The cooled mixture was then filtered and the solid obtained washed with acetone followed by ether. The mother liquors were combined, evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue partitioned between EtOAc and H2O. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure to afford a further batch of solid. The solids were combined and heated to reflux with 4-toluenesulphonic acid (10 g, 0.056 mol) in dioxane (400 ml) for 18 h. On cooling, a colourless crystalline product was formed which was filtered and washed with EtOAc to afford the subtitle compound as colourless crystals (176 g, 65%). Rf 0.1 (EtOAc). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ: 2.20 (4H, d), 2.50 (2H, t), 2.70 (2H, s), 3.00 (2H,s), 3.65 (2H, s), 7.20-7.45 (5H, m).
