Procedure
Combine tert-butyl 4-(2-methylsulfonyloxyethyl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (5.26 kg, 17.1 mol), ethyl cyanoacetate (7 kg, 62 mol), 21% sodium ethoxide in EtOH (8.25 L, 24.75 mol) and EtOH (35 L) in a 50 L reactor under a nitrogen atmosphere. Heat the mixture at 35-40° C. for 18 h at which time NMR analysis shows 20% of the mesylate remaining Continue heating the mixture at 35-40° C. for 24 h at which time NMR analysis shows only a small amount of mesylate. Slowly cool the reaction to RT and add glacial acetic acid (1422 mL, 22.68 mol) over 30 min. Concentrate the mixture using vacuum distillation and then partition between water (25 L) and EtOAc (35 L). Separate the layers and extract the aqueous phase with EtOAc (10 L). Combine the organic portions, wash with brine (15 L), and concentrate to a red oil. Purify the oil using silica gel chromatography (75 kg silica gel, 65-250 mesh), eluting with hexane (40 L) and then 20% EtOAc/hexane to provide a fraction (7.8 kg) that is 30% ethyl cyanoacetate/70% desired product. Concentrate the material by wipe film distillation at 100° C. and 210 mtorr vacuum, collecting the non-volatile fraction to provide the title compound (4.54 kg, 82%).
