Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Potassium carbonate (304 mg, 2.2 mmol) was dissolved in a minimum amount of water. Next, 4-fluoro-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile (378 mg, 2.0 mmol) and trans-4-aminocyclohexanol (460 mg, 4.0 mmol) dissolved in acetonitrile (10 mL) were added. The resulting mixture was then heated at 80° C. for 3 days. After cooling at room temperature, the mixture was concentrated under vacuum, taken up in ethyl acetate (15 mL), washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (2×10 mL), and washed with water (10 mL). The organic phase was collected and dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under vacuum. The desired product was isolated as a colorless solid (456 mg, 80% yield).
