Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of aminomethylcyclohexane (0.34 g, 3.0 mmol) in methylene chloride (30 mL) was added heptanoic acid (0.39 g, 3 mmol) and DMAP (0.37 g, 3.0 mmol) followed by 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (0.57 g, 3.0 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was diluted with methylene chloride (100 mL), and the organic phase was washed with 5% HCl (3×75 mL), aqueous NaHCO3 (75 mL) and brine (75 mL), and dried over Na2SO4. Concentration in vacuo afforded 0.62 g (92%) of an oil, which then crystallised.
