1,5-Dioxa-8-azaspiro[5.4]decane benzyl carbamate → 6,10-Dioxa-2-azaspiro[4.5]decane

Participants

Reaction Steps

The protecting group was removed by dissolving 2.09 g (7.5 mmol) of 1,5-dioxa-8-azaspiro[5.4]decane benzyl carbamate, from Step 1, in 100 mL of methanol, adding 0.50 g of 20% Pd/C, and hydrogenating at room temperature under 4 atm of hydrogen for 24 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration, then the solvent was removed under vacuum to afford the title compound, MS: M/Z 144 (M+H), which was taken directly to the next step.
