Triphenylphosphine → HCID 67067087, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (0.35 ml, 40% Tol solution) was dropwise added to a THF (5 ml) solution containing 3-pyridyl 4-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)-1-piperidinecarboxylate (160 mg), 3-chlorobenzyl alcohol (110 mg) and triphenylphosphine (200 mg) at 0° C., followed by stirring at room temperature for 24 hours. The reaction solution was diluted with chloroform, washed with aqueous saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane:EtOAc=1:3 (v/v)). The resulting oil was dissolved in EtOAc (5 ml), and 4 M hydrogen chloride/EtOAc solution (1 ml) was added thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the precipitated solid was recrystallized from EtOAc/2-propanol to obtain 3-pyridyl 4-{4-[(3-chlorobenzyl)oxy]phenoxy}-1-piperidinecarboxylate hydrochloride (45 mg).
