Procedure: To a solution of 2-bromo-5-chlorobenzoic acid (5.49 g, 23.3 mmol) in anhydrous THF (70 mL) under nitrogen was added dropwise a BH3 THF solution (1.0 M, 55 mL) at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. Then the mixture was cooled on an ice bath and MeOH (20 mL) was added dropwise to decompose excess BH3. The resulting mixture was stirred until no bubble was released and then 10% NaOH (10 mL) was added. The mixture was concentrated and the residue was mixed with water (200 mL) and extracted with EtOAc. The residue from rotary evaporation was purified by silica gel column chromatography (5:1 hexane/EtOAc) to give 2-bromo-5-chlorobenzyl alcohol as a white solid (4.58 g, 88%): 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ (ppm) 7.57 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 1H), 7.50-7.49 (m, 1H), 7.28-7.24 (m, 1H), 5.59 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 1H), 4.46 (d, J=6.0 Hz, 2H).

After addition of acetone, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, water was added the obtained residue, and then extracted with ether. The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and saturated sodium chloride solution, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, to give the title compound (19.5 g; 94%) the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, water was added the obtained residue extracted with ether The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and saturated sodium chloride solution dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate The solvent was removed under reduced pressure

Procedure: A solution of (2-bromo-5-chlorophenyl)methanol (1.48 g, 6.68 mmol) in anhydrous THF (30 mL) was cooled to −78° C. and treated with the dropwise addition of n-BuLi (1.6 M in hexanes) (8.77 mL, 14.03 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at −78° C., during which a thick white precipitate was observed. The dianion was treated with the dropwise addition of a solution of tert-butyl 4-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate (1.465 g, 7.35 mmol) in THF (10 mL), and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at −78° C., during which a yellow homogeneous solution was observed, then allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The reaction was quenched with saturated ammonium chloride and the mixture was extracted 3× with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed with water and brine, then dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in-vacuo. The residue was split into two equal fractions, and each was purified over a 40 g silica gel column via ISCO, eluting with a 10-100% EtOAc/Hexanes gradient over 15 minutes. The fractions from each run which contained the desired product were combined to yield the title compound (1.4 g, 4.10 mmol, 61.3% yield) as a colorless foam.
