Procedure: Thionyl chloride (19.1 g, 162 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution, cooled to 0° C., of 3-amino-3-phenylpropionic acid (8.9 g, 54 mmol) in methanol (150 ml). The reaction mixture was then heated under reflux for 12 h (TLC control). The solvent was removed completely and the residue was dried in vacuo. The crude product was employed in the next stage without further purification.

Procedure: To a solution of 2,6-difluoronitrobenzene (272 mg, 1.71 mmol) in DMSO (2 mL) was added methyl-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoate (553 mg, 2.57 mmol) and potassium carbonate (709 mg, 5.13 mmol), and the suspension stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. 4-Piperidinecarboxylic acid (335 mg, 2.59 mmol) was added, and the resulting suspension stirred at room temperature for 24 hours, and then heated at 100° C. for 3 hours. The suspension was cooled to room temperature, and diluted with water. The aqueous solution was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the separated aqueous layer acidified with dilute hydrochloric acid (pH<4), and re-extracted with ethyl acetate. The second organic extracts were evaporated in vacuo, and the residue purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (96:4) to afford the title compound, 1H NMR: (CDCl3) 7.36-7.22 (m, 5H), 7.02 (t, J=8.06, 1H), 6.34 (dd, J=8.06, 1.10, 1H), 6.19 (d, J=8.06, 1H), 4.89-4.85 (m, 1H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 3.25-3.21 (m, 2H), 2.87-2.77 (m, 4H), 2.48-2.41 (m, 1H), 2.02-1.82 (m, 4H). the resulting suspension stirred at room temperature for 24 hours heated at 100° C. for 3 hours The suspension was cooled to room temperature The aqueous solution was extracted with ethyl acetate re-extracted with ethyl acetate The second organic extracts were evaporated in vacuo the residue purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (96:4)
