Procedure
A solution of 50 g of sodium borohydride in 100 ml of water is added dropwise, with stirring and external cooling, to a solution of 56.0 g of 1-methyl-3-(2-benzofuranyl)-piperidinium-iodide in 600 ml of methanol, the manner of addition being such that the reaction temperature does not exceed 35°. The solution is subsequently stirred for 15 hours at room temperature and again a solution of 50 g of sodium borohydride in 100 ml of water is added dropwise at a temperature not exceeding 35°. The methanol is thereupon evaporated off in vacuo; the aqueous phase remaining behind is extracted twice with 300 ml of chloroform each time, the chloroform solution dried over sodium sulphate, filtered, and concentrated by evaporation. The 1-methyl-3-(2-benzofuranyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine obtained is recrystallised from di-isopropylether, and then melts at 63°. The hydrochloride prepared therefrom with a solution of hydrogen chloride in ethyl acetate melts, after recrystallisation from ethyl acetate, at 244°-246°.
