Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (4-methyl-piperidin-4-yl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester hydrochloride salt (0.15 g, 0.53 mmol, Example 30B) in dioxane (1.0 mL) at room temperature was added 2-chloro-5-trifluoromethyl-pyridine (0.11 g, 0.6 mmol) and diisopropylethyl amine (0.21 mL, 1.2 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 150° C. in a microwave for 180 minutes, concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by flash chromatography with 30% ethyl acetate in hexane to provide (4-methyl-5′-trifluoromethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-(1,2′)bipyridinyl-4-yl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester.
