Potassium Carbonate → 3-{p-[3-(4-Phenylpiperidino)propionylamino]-benzoyl}-propionic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

56 g (200 millimoles) of 3-[p-(3-chloropropionylamino)-benzoyl]-propionic acid were stirred with 60.7 g (440 millimoles) of potassium carbonate and 35.5 g (220 millimoles) of phenylpiperidine in 900 ml of dimethylformamide for 8 hours at 80° C. 2 kg of ice/water were added, after which the crystals were filtered off under suction and recrystallized from dimethylformamide/water, and the product was dried at 50° C. under greatly reduced pressure. 70 g (86%) of 3-{p-[3-(4-phenylpiperidino)propionylamino]-benzoyl}-propionic acid were obtained as colorless crystals of melting point 237°-238° C.
