Benzyl 4-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)piperidine-1-carboxylate → 4-(N-Boc-amino)piperidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

N-CBZ-4-(BOC-amino)-piperidine (3.0 g, 9.0 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (100 mL) and transferred into a Parr shaker bottle. After adding 10% palladium on carbon (0.5 g), the mixture was shaken under an atmosphere of hydrogen at 50 psi for 0.75 h on a Parr apparatus. The catalyst was removed by filtration through a pad of Celite. The filter cake was washed with ethanol and the combined filtrate and washings were concentrated in vacuo to yield 1.8 g (100%) of crude 4-(BOC-amino)-piperidine as a pale yellow oil. This product was used immediately in the next step without further purification.
