Procedure: To a stirred solution of 2,4-dichloro-1-(2-nitro-phenoxy)-benzene (3.5 g, 12.32 mmol) in ethyl acetate (60 mL) stannous chloride dihydrate (13.89 g, 61.6 mmol) was added and the mixture was refluxed for 2 h before it was quenched with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (192 mL). The organic phase was separated and the aqueous phase was washed several times with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to yield 3.1 g (99%) of the title compound as a yellowish oil: MS (EI) 255.2 (MH+). the mixture was refluxed for 2 h before it was quenched with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (192 mL) The organic phase was separated the aqueous phase was washed several times with ethyl acetate The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate filtered concentrated in vacuo

Procedure: A solution of piperidine-1,4-dicarboxylic acid mono-tert-butyl ester (489 mg, 2.13 mmol) in dry DCM (10 mL) was stirred under nitrogen, and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMPA, 40 mg, 0.327 mmol), (1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC, 1.116 g, 5.82 mmol) and triethylamine (0.3 mL) were added. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min under nitrogen and 2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenylamine (AMR01026, 491 mg, 1.93 mmol) in dry DCM (5 mL) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 72 h, the mixture was diluted with DCM, washed with HCl 1M (3×25 mL), water, saturated NaHCO3 (2×25 mL) and brine. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give 4-[2-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)phenylcarbamoyl]piperidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (754 mg, 84%) as a white solid (mp 120-121° C. from hexane), which was used in the next step without further purification.

Procedure: To a refluxing mixture of iron powder (2.68 g, 48.4 mmol) and ammonium chloride (323 mg, 6.05 mmol) in ethanol (45 mL) and water (8 mL) was added 1-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-2-nitrobenzene (AMR01025, 2.5 g, 8.8 mmol) and the resulting mixture was stirred at reflux for 2 h. After removal of the solvent, the residue was diluted in aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate (40 mL) and extracted with DCM (3×20 mL).
