The reaction between 1-benzylpiperidin-4-ol [4727-72-4] (1) and 1-isocyanato-2-phenylbenzene [605-677-1] (2) gave the urethane [171723-80-1]. Next acid transfer hydrogenation cleaved the benzyl protecting group to give [171722-92-2] (3). The reductive amination with Cbz-sarcosinal [107201-33-2] (4). Catalytic hydrogenation then removed the Cbz group to give [743460-48-2] (5). Amide formation with 4-formylbenzoic acid [619-66-9] (6) gave [864760-28-1] (7). Lastly, a reductive amination reaction with isonipecotamide [39546-32-2] (8) completed the synthesis of revefenacin (9).
