Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of 103 mg (0.30 mmol) of 4-(3,5-dichloro-pyridin-4-yloxy)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester in CH2Cl2 (2 mL) was treated with trifluoroacetic acid (0.5 mL) at room temperature overnight. The solvent was then removed and the crude product dissolved in MeOH and stirred over 100 mg of sodium bicarbonate for 1 h. The solid was filtered off and the filtrate concentrated. The crude piperidine was then dissolved in 4 mL EtOH and treated with 100 mg (0.27 mmol) of 1-[1-oxiranylmethyl-3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-1,4,6,7-tetrahydro-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-5-yl]-ethanone. The solution was heated to 60° C. overnight. The solvent was then removed by rotary evaporation and the crude product was purified by column chromatography (silica, 0-10% MeOH/EtOAc) to afford 90 mg (54%) of a white solid.
