Reaktionsschritte

Hydrogenate a mixture of 3,5-difluorocinnamic acid (10.0 g, 54.3 mmol), 5% palladium on carbon (1.5 g), and concentrated sulfuric acid (10 ml) in tetrahydrofuran (195 ml) at 60 psi at room temperature overnight. After filtering the catalyst, dilute with ether, wash with water twice, dry over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrate to obtain the title compound as clear colorless crystals (9.32 g, 92%). NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 2.67 (t, 2H), 2.94 (t, 2H), 6.65 (t, 1H), 6.74 (d, 2H).
