Sodium Iodide → HCID 56687105, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.200 g (1.034 mmol) of 1-methyl-4-oxopiperidine-3-carboxylate hydrochloride (commercially available, ABCR), 0.54 mL (3.102 mmol) of diisopropylethylamine, 0.155 g (1.034 mmol) of sodium iodide and 0.170 g (1.034 mmol) of 3-(chloromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride were stirred at 80° C. in 5.0 mL of anhydrous CH3CN. The reaction was monitored by HPLC and UPLC-MS. After 1 h at 80° C., the insoluble inorganic materials were filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give a yellowish residue. This residue was dissolved in CH2Cl2, washed with brine, H2O, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give pure methyl 4-oxo-1-(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)piperidine-3-carboxylate (0.257 g, 1.034 mmol, quantitative yield). The product was used for the next step without further manipulation.
