Chloride → (R)-1-(3-(9H-tribenz[b,d,f]azepin-9-yl)propyl)-3-piperidine carboxylic acid ethyl ester hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the above chloride (0.21 g, 0.66 mmol), ethyl (R)-3-piperidinecarboxylate tartrate (0.30 g, 1.0 mmol), potassium carbonate (0.18 g, 2.0 mmol), potassium iodide (0.10 g, 0.60 mmol) and 2-butanone (10 ml) was heated at reflux temperature for 40 hours. After cooling to room temperature, dichloromethane (50 ml) was added and the mixture was filtered. The filtrate was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid (20 ml), water (20 ml) and saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (20 ml), dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The remainder was dissolved in diethyl ether (20 ml) and a 2.6M solution of hydrogen chloride in diethyl ether (0.5 ml) was added. The formed precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with ether and dried, affording 0.13 g (41%) of (R)-1-(3-(9H-tribenz[b,d,f]azepin-9-yl)propyl)-3-piperidine carboxylic acid ethyl ester hydrochloride as a solid.
