Chlorotrimethylsilane → 1-Methyl-4-trimethylsilanyloxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine

Temperature

110 °C

To a stirred solution of 1-methyl-piperidin-4-one (6.0 g, 53 mmol, 6.52 mL) and Et3N (14.16 g, 140 mmol, 19.5 mL) in 1,4-dioxane (20 mL) was added chlorotrimethylsilane (7.6 g, 70 mmol, 8.88 mL) drop wise during 30 min. The resultant reaction mixture was slowly heated to reflux at 110° C., stirred at the same temperature for 24 h, an additional amount of chlorotrimethylsilane (4.44 mL), heated for 24 h (take aliquot of it and run 1H NMR), cooled to room temp, filtered off the solid, solid was washed with n-pentane. The filtrate was concentrated on rotavaporator, and then diluted with n-pentane and filtered off the solid. The resultant solution was concentrated on rotavaporator followed by high vacuum furnished the 1-methyl-4-trimethylsilanyloxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-pyridine (9.68 g, 1H NMR showed about 10:1 ratio of silylenolether and the starting material). The crude product was as such used in the next step without further purification.
