Reaction Steps

A mixture of 15 parts of 4-(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-yl)phenol hydrochloride, 29 parts of potassium carbonate and 180 parts of N,N-dimethylformamide was stirred for 1 hour at about 80° C. Then there were added 16.4 parts of ethyl 4-(3-chloropropyl)-1-piperidinecarboxylate and stirring was continued overnight at about 95° C. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water and the product was extracted with dichloromethane. The extract was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol (98.5:1.5 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated, yielding 18.8 parts (71.7%) of ethyl 4-[3-[4-(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-yl)phenoxy]propyl]-1-piperidinecarboxylate; mp. 128.5° C. (int. 59).
