Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3 parts of 3-(3-fluorophenyl)-3-piperidinol hydrochloride and 100 parts of a hydrochloric acid solution 6N was stirred and refluxed for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was evaporated. The residue was taken up in water and ammonium hydroxide. The product was extracted with trichloromethane. The extract was washed with water, dried, filtered and evaporated, yielding 2.2 parts (96%) of 5-(3-fluorophenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine as a residue (intermediate 85).
