The condensation of 3-(4-fluorophenoxy)propionic acid (I) with 4-piperidone (II) by means of pivaloyl chloride and TEA in refluxing toluene gives the amide (III), which is submitted to oxidation with diacetoxyiodobenzene and KOH in methanol, yielding the hydroxy-dimethoxyketal (IV). The methylation of the OH group of (IV) with Me-I and Ag2O in DMF affords the corresponding methoxy compound (V), which is hydrolyzed with HOAc to provide the methoxypiperidone (VI). The reaction of (VI) with O-benzylhydroxylamine (VII) and pyridine in refluxing toluene gives the oxime (VIII), which is diastereoselectively reduced with BH3 in THF, yielding the cis-isomer (IX). Finally, this amine is condensed with 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid (X) by means of ethyl chloroformate, TEA and HOBt in DMF to afford the target amide.
