Reaktionsschritte

Following the procedure described in N. W. Werner et. al., J. Org. Syn. Coll. Vol. 5, 273-276, sodium azide (0.915 g, 14.1 mmol) is slowly added to a solution of 1-phenyl-cyclopropanecarboxlic acid (1.0 g, 6.1 mmol) in concentrated sulfuric acid (5 ml) and dichloromethane (10 ml). The sodium sulfate precipitated out of solution. The reaction mixture is heated to 50 degrees C. for 17 hours and then cooled to 0 degrees C. The mixture is basified to pH=11 with sodium hydroxide (1N) and extracted with dichloromethane (2×). The organic layers are combined, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue is purified by chromatography (silica gel; isopropyl alcohol/chloroform/ammonium hydroxide 4/95/1) to give the title compound, MS (ESI+) for C9H11N m/z (M+H)+=134.
