Reaction Steps

430 mg (1.58 mmol) of N-[2-(3-cyanophenoxy)ethyl]piperidine-4-carboxyamide was dissolved in 10 ml of dimethylformamide. 540 mg (3.93 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 0.16 ml (1.31 mmol) of benzyl bromide were added to the solution, and they were stirred at 50° C. for 13 hours. After the treatment with ethyl acetate as the extractant in an ordinary manner, crude 1-benzyl-N-[2-(3-cyanophenoxy)ethyl]piperidine-4-carboxyamide was obtained. The crude product was stirred in 10 ml of dioxane containing 4 N hydrogen chloride. 3.5 ml of ethanol containing 30% (w/v) of hydrogen chloride was added to the resultant mixture. After the stirring at room temperature for 3 days, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in 20 ml of 10% (w/v) solution of ammonia in ethanol, and the obtained solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 days. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was treated by the reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with silica gel, containing octadodecyl group chemically bonded thereto, as the filler. After the elution with a mixed solvent of water and acetonitrile containing 0.1% (v/v) of trifluoroacetic acid, the fraction of the intended product was freeze-dried to obtain the title compound.
