Practical Synthesis of Ethyl 1-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-4-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-4-piperidineacetate, an Intermediate of a Novel Antiarteriosclerotic, Utilizing Aza-Michael Addition Promoted by LiBr
The aza-Michael addition of pyrrolidine to beta,beta-dialkylated unsaturated ester 6 utilizing LiBr proceeded smoothly to give the inaccessible ethyl 1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-4-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-4-piperidineacetate (7), which is an intermediate of novel antiarteriosclerotic 1.
