Procedure

To a solution of 1182 g (0.6 mol) 2,6-diethyl-2,3,6-trimethyl-4-oxopiperidine in 1000 ml ethanol 18.2 g (0.4 mol) sodium borohydride are acided In portions and the temperature is kept below 30° C. Subsequently the solution is stirred for 2 hours at 50° C. Ethanol is distilled off, 500 ml water are acided to the residue which is subsequently extracted several times with CH2Cl2. The extract is dried over Na2SO4 and the solution is filtered. After removing the solvent 116 g (97%) 2,6-diethyl-2,3,6-trimethyl-4-hydroxypiperidine are obtained as yellowish liquid.
