Procedure

A solution of 5-bromo-1-methyl-1H-imidazole (25.0 g, 155 mmol; dried over 3 Å molecular sieves, then filtered) in DCM (310 mL) was stirred on an ice bath while iPrMgCl (72 mL, 2.01 M solution in THF, 145 mmol) was added rapidly dropwise under argon via pressure-equalizing addition funnel. Residual iPrMgCl was rinsed down with 50 mL THF, and the ice bath was removed and the reaction stirred for 25 minutes. A solution of tert-butyl 4-formylpiperidine-1-carboxylate (27.6 g, 130 mmol) (PharmaCore) in THF (65 mL) was added dropwise over ˜5 minutes via pressure-equalizing addition funnel at room temperature. After stirring 1 hour at room temperature, the yellow mixture was quenched with 5 M aqueous NH4Cl (250 mL) in one portion. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated to provide the crude title compound as a clear light amber oil.
