Reaction Steps

A one-liter, 3-necked, Morton flask equipped with an air condenser and a magnetic stirring plate was charged with N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine (210.06 grams, 1.65 moles), 1-bromo-3-chloropropane (259.99 grams, 1.65 moles) and methanol (250 mL). Reaction was maintained at 65° C. for 24 hours. Methanol was removed by rotary evaporation under reduced pressure to yield a brown sludge. To the sludge was added tert-butylmethylether (600 ml) causing an oil to form. The liquid phase was decanted from the oil and a second portion of methyl-tert-butylether (600 ml) was added. The mixture was stirred and liquid phase was decanted off from a thick sludge. To the sludge was added diethylether (600 mL) causing a white, semi-solid layer to form. The mixture was stirred and a liquid phase was removed. A white solid was placed in a vacuum oven at 35° C. for 24 hours. Yield 404.9 grams (1.42 molest 85%)
