Reaction Steps

3(R)-(Phenyl-propionyl-amino)-piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (169) (100 mg) was dissolved in a mixture of TFA-CH2Cl2 (1 ml, 20%) and stirred for 1 hr. After removal of solvent, the residue was dried under vacuum for 30 min and dissolved in 5 ml of CH2Cl2, washed with sat. K2CO3, dried (Na2SO4), filtered. After evaporation of the solvent, the residue was dissolved in CH3CN (1 ml). Then K2CO3 (125 mg, 3 eq), water (1 ml) and (2-bromoethyl)benzene (0.05 ml, 1.2 eq) was added. The mixture was heated at 70° C. for 12 hr. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with sat. NAHCO3 (5 ml), extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×10 ml). The combined organic layers were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (100% CH2Cl2, 2%-4% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to give 170 as a colorless oil. 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ7.40 (m, 3H), 7.10 (m, 2H), 4.80 (m, 1H), 0.20 (m, 1H), 4.00 (m, 1H), 2.40 (m, 2H), 1.95 (m, 3H), 1.61 (m, 1H), 1.51 (m, 1H), 1.50 (s, 9H), 1.30 (m, 1H), 1.00 (t, 3H) ppm; LRMS (calculated for C22H28N2O2)+336, found 336; IR (film) 2978, 2937, 2860, 1693, 1662, 1698, 1494, 1422, 1363, 1264, 1151, 1386, 1182 cm−1.
