Reaction Steps

To benzyl 4-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate (152 g, 650 mmol) in DMF (650 mL) was added TMS-Cl (148 mL, 117 mmol) followed by triethylamine (326 mL, 234 mmol). The slurry was warmed to 80° C. for 16 hours, diluted with hexanes (1 L), washed 3 times with saturated NaHCO3 solution, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to obtain benzyl 4-(trimethylsilyloxy)-5,6-dihydropyridine-1(2H)-carboxylate, (199 g, 652 mmol) as a orange oil.
