Reaction Steps

Ethyl(E)-3-(4,4-difluorocyclohexyl)acrylate (520 mg, 2.39 mmol) obtained in step 1 was dissolved in ethanol (8.0 mL), and 10% palladium/carbon (containing water) (200 mg) was added. After displacing inside of the reaction vessel with hydrogen gas, the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite (registered trademark), and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give ethyl 3-(4,4-difluorocyclohexyl)propionate (522 mg, yield 99%).
