Reaktionsschritte

The 4-(cyanomethyl)-3-methoxybenzoic acid (0.33 g, 1.7 mmol) was suspended in anhydrous dichloromethane (5 mL) and treated with oxalyl chloride (0.3 mL, 3.5 mmol) followed by few drops of DMF at 22° C. under argon. After 2 h stirring, the resulting solution was concentrated to dryness, dissolved in dichloromethane (5 mL), and added slowly to a solution of trans-2-aminocyclohexanol hydrochloride (0.26 g, 1.7 mmol) and TEA (0.5 mL, 3.5 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (10 mL). After 20 min stirring, filtered off salt, and concentrated to afford 4-(cyanomethyl)-N-[(2R)-2-hydroxycyclohexyl]-3-methoxybenzamide as a yellow solid. MS (ESI) 289 (M+H)+.
