1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole → HCID 67095615, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-(piperidin-4-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (211.4 mg, 1.234 mmol, Oakwood,) in N,N-dimethyl formamide (5.0 mL) was added 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (216 mg, 1.332 mmol Aldrich). After it was stirred at rt for 4 days under an argon atmosphere, the solvent was removed and the reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc, and washed with water (2×), and saturated NaCl. The organic phase was separated, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give [1-(imidazole-1-carbonyl)-piperidin-4-yl]acetic acid ethyl ester (293.3 mg, 1.10 mmol, 89.6%) which was used without further purification.
