Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(methylsulfonyl)piperidine hydrochloride (900 mg, 4.51 mmol), 2-bromoethanol (1126 mg, 9.01 mmol) and potassium carbonate (1869 mg, 13.52 mmol) in acetonitrile (4 mL) was heated up at 60° C. for 13 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the crude, the crude was purified by 0-35% ethyl acetate/methanol to provide the desired product as colorless oil (620 mg, 66%). LCMS: m/e 208.1 (M+H)+, 0.27 min (method 6).
