Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-[4-methoxy-2-oxo-3-(2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl)-cyclopent-3-en-(E)-ylidenemethyl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (15.33 g, 36.02 mmol) in ethanol (150 ml) is added 10% palladium on activated charcoal (1.53 g) and the reaction stirred under hydrogen (4 bar) for hours. The reaction is filtered through a pad of Celite and the solvent removed under reduced pressure to give 4-[4-methoxy-2-oxo-3-(2,4,6-trimethyl-phenyl)-cyclopent-3-enylmethyl]-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (15.4 g)
