Reaction Steps

In accordance with the above reaction formula (1), the compound of the present invention was prepared. First, after 4.2 g (0.039 mole) of benzylamine and 3.1 g (0.039 mole) of pyridine were dissolved in 50 ml of toluene, 11.0 g (0.039 mole) of 2-(4-fluoro-3-trifluoromethylphenoxy)butanoic chloride was gradually added dropwise to the solution under stirring at room temperature. After dropwise addition, the mixture was further stirred for 3 hours at room temperature, and the reaction mixture was then washed with a diluted hydrochloric acid, diluted sodium hydroxide and water with the order. After the toluene layer was dehydrated with anhydrous sodium sulfate, toluene was distilled out under reduced pressure. Resulting crude crystal was recrystallized from toluene to give 12.8 g (Yield: 92 %) of N-benzyl-2-(4-fluoro-3-trifluoromethylphenoxy)butanoic amide having a melting point of 75 to 76 ° C. as colorless needle crystals.
