ChEBI: 2-methyl-1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(1-piperidinyl)-1-propanone is an aromatic ketone.
To 1-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(1-piperidinyl)-1-propanol in chloroform was added
an excess of thionyl chloride and the reaction mixture refluxed until
completed. It was then taken to dryness under reduced pressure and the
residue crystallized by dissolving in hot alcohol and diluting with ethyl acetate.
An aqueous solution of the obtained N-[3-chloro-3-(p-tolyl)propyl]piperidine
hydrochloride was hydrogenated at 3 atmospheres in the presence of buffered
palladium-on-charcoal catalyst. 1-Piperidino-2-methyl-3-(p-tolyl)-3-propanone
was purified by distilling the base (boiling point 106-107°C/1 mm) and
reconverting to the hydrochloride, melting point 216-217°C.
