Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 4-(5-cyanopyridin-2-yl)-4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate (compound 26.2, 1 g, 3.13 mmol, 1.00 equiv, 95%) in dichloromethane (50 mL) under nitrogen at −78° C. was added dropwise a solution of bis(2-methoxyethyl)aminosulfur trifluoride (830 mg, 3.75 mmol, 1.20 equiv) in dichloromethane (10 mL) during the course of 1 min. The resulting mixture was stirred for 1 h at −78° C. The reaction was then carefully quenched by dropwise addition of water and washed with 2×20 mL of sodium bicarbonate(aq) followed by 3×20 mL of brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified using silica gel column chromatography with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:10) to yield 0.38 g (38%) of the title compound as a white solid.
