Tert-butyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate → HCID 23114547, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The 2-[(4-chlorophenyl)sulfonylmethyl]-1,4-difluorobenzene (1.25 g, 4.13 mmol) obtained in Example 5 and t-butyl 4-hydroxy-1-piperidinecarboxylate (1.70 g, 8.44 mmol) were dissolved in toluene (50 ml), followed by the addition of cyanomethylenetri-n-butylphosphorane (2.00 g, 8.29 mmol). Under an argon atmosphere, the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 14 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool down. The residue obtained by concentrating the reaction mixture under reduced pressure was subjected to flash silica gel chromatography. The fraction obtained from the hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1 eluate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a white solid. The white solid was washed with diethyl ether, whereby the title compound (1.68 g, 3.46 mmol, 84%) was obtained as a white powder.
