Acrylic Acid → HCID 19030764, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Acrylic acid (28.9 ml) is added to 1-(1-benzyl-4-piperidinylamino)-1-cyclohexen-3-on (100 g) and the mixture is refluxed with stirring for 6 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture is dissolved in chloroform containing 10% methanol and purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent; dichloromethane:methanol=40:1). The resultant is recrystallized from ethanol/water to give 1-(1-benzyl-4-piperidinyl)-5-oxo-3,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydrocarbostyril (23.98 g) as colorless needles, m.p.: 102°-103° C.
