Reaktionsschritte

1-Amino-1-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid(51.5 g, Aldrich) was added to 150 ml of THF followed by boron trifluoride etherate(27 ml, Aldrich). The reaction mixture was heated to 40° C., stirred for 10 minutes and then a 1.0M solution of diborane(380 ml, Aldrich) was added. The mixture was refluxed for 2 hr, cooled and added THF/water (1:1,25 ml) followed by 6N NaOH(95 ml). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 2 hr, cooled to room temperature and the organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried and concentrated to give a light yellow oil (34.0 g). 1H NMR consistent with the proposed structure.
