Reaction Steps

3-(2-Amino-5-chloro-phenyl)-acrylic acid ethyl ester (10.4 g, 46 mmol) and 4-oxo-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (13.8 g, 69 mmol) were set stirring in CH2Cl2 (230 mL). Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (14.6 g, 69 mmol) was added in portions over 10 min. Acetic acid (1.3 mL, 25 mmol) was then added and the mixture left to stir. After 18 h saturated NaHCO3 was added and the organics separated. The organics were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica, 20-50% EtOAc/hexanes) to obtain 12.4 g (66%) of a light beige solid. TLC (silica, 25% EtOAc/hexanes): Rf=0.5. MS (electrospray): exact mass calculated for C21H29ClN2O4, 408.18. m/z found, 409.1 [M++H]. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 7.64 (d, J=15.65 Hz, 1H), 7.29 (d, J=2.35 Hz, 1H), 7.14 (dd, J=6.26 Hz, 2.54 Hz, 1H), 6.59 (d, J=9.00 Hz, 1H), 6.28 (d, J=15.65 Hz, 1H), 4.23 (dd, J=7.04 Hz, 7.04 Hz, 2H), 4.11-3.98 (m, 2H), 3.81 (br s, 1H), 3.46-3.36 (m, 1H), 2.89 (t, J=11.74 Hz, 2H), 2.04-1.95 (m, 2H), 1.44 (s, 9H), 1.42-1.33 (m, 2H), 1.30 (t, J=7.24 Hz, 3H).
