Participants

Reaction Steps

15.3 g (20.5 mmol) of (3S,4R,5R)-3-[(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-propoxy]-4-[4-[3-(2-methoxy-benzyloxy)-propoxy]-phenyl]5-(4-methoxy-naphthalen-2-ylmethoxy)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester were dissolved in 70 ml of abs. methanol at 0° C., then 118 ml (236 mmol) of hydrochloric acid in methanol (2.0 molar) were added dropwise at 5° C. max. and thereafter the mixture was warmed to room temperature. After 22 hours the reaction mixture was poured into ice-cold sodium hydrogen carbon ate solution (1 l , 60 g sodium hydrogen carbonate) and the product was extracted three times with 500 ml dichloromethane, the organic phases were washed with distilled water, then dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in a water-jet vacuum. The thus-obtained crude product was chromatographed on silica gel with dichloromethane methanol (95/5). There were thus obtained 9.3 g (14.4 mmol), 70.2%, (R)-1-methoxy-3-[(3S,4R,5R)-4-[4-[3-(2-methoxy-benzyloxy)-propoxy]-phenyl]-5-(4-methoxy-naphthalen-2-ylmethoxy)-piperidin-3-yloxy]-propan-2-ol as colorless oil; MS: 646.3 (M+H)+.
