Hydrochloric Acid → 1-[1-(Tert-butoxycarbonyl)azepan-4-yl]-4-methoxypiperidine-4-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

tert-butyl 4-[4-methoxy-4-(methoxycarbonyl)piperidin-1-yl]azepane-1-carboxylate (0.06 g, 0.17 mmol) was dissolved in THF (5 mL) at rt and 1M LiOH sol. (0.35 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 8 days. The pH was carefully adjusted to pH 6 by addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid, the solvents were removed in vacuo, to give 1-[1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)azepan-4-yl]-4-methoxypiperidine-4-carboxylic acid which was used crude in subsequent reaction.
