Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of diisopropylamine (153 mg, 1.5 mmol) in THF (20 mL) was added n-BuLi (2.5 M, 0.6 mL) at −75° C. under N2. After 5 min, ethyl 1-benzylpiperidine-4-carboxylate (247 mg, 1.0 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture then stirred at −70° C. for 10 min, before adding di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate (345 mg, 1.5 mmol). The reaction was stirred for 30 min, then quenched with aqueous NH4Cl (10 mL) and extracted with EA (10 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give the crude product (350 mg, 72%) as an off-white solid. MS (ESI, m/e) [M+1]+ 478.3.
