2-(4-Fluorophenyl)acetic acid → 2-(4-Fluorophenyl)-N-methoxy-N-methylacetamide

To a stirred solution of 2-(4-fluorophenyl)acetic acid (15 g, 97.32 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in CH2Cl2 (300 mL) was added methoxy(methyl)amine hydrochloride (11.1 g, 113.79 mmol, 1.20 equiv), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (12 g, 98.22 mmol, 1.00 equiv), 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (28.2 g, 147.10 mmol, 1.50 equiv), and DIEA (37.5 g, 290.14 mmol, 3.00 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 16 h and then diluted with EtOAc (150 mL). The organics were washed with aqueous 1N HCl (2×150 mL) and brine (2×150 mL). It was then dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, eluting with EtOAc/petroleum ether (1:3)). This resulted in 18 g (88%) of the title compound as yellow oil. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ ppm 7.29-7.25 (m, 211), 7.03-6.99 (m, 2H), 3.75 (s, 2H), 3.65 (s, 3H), 3.21 (s, 3H).
