Ethyl 3-(2-bromo-6-chlorophenyl)propanoate (Example 1f), 5.0 g, 17.1 mmol) and sodium cyanide (0.168 g, 3.43 mmol) were stirred in methanamine (8 M in ethanol, 30 mL, 240 mmol) at rt overnight. The solvent was evaporated, the residue was taken up in ethyl acetate and the mixture was washed with saturated aqueous sodium carbonate and brine. The organic phase was separated and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. The crude product was added to a silica gel column and was eluted with 0-100% ethyl acetate in heptane. The collected fractions were combined and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation to give the title product. Yield 2.98 g, 63%. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 2.40-2.47 (m, 2H) 2.85 (d, 3H) 3.28-3.35 (m, 2H) 5.44 (br. s., 1H) 7.02 (t, 1H) 7.33 (dd, Hz, 1H) 7.47 (dd, Hz, 1H). MS m/z 277.9 [M+H]+.
