Procedure

1 ml (7.62 mmol, 1.1 eq.) of cyclohexanoic acid chloride is added to a solution of 1.05 g (6.89 mmol) of 2,5-dimethoxyaniline in 10 ml of a mixture toluene/methanol (1/1). The reaction mixture is maintained under stirring at 70° C. for 1.5 hour, and, after returning to ambient temperature, is poured into 50 ml of water. The expected product is extracted twice with 50 ml of toluene, then washed twice with 50 ml of water. The organic phases are combined, dried over magnesium sulphate and the solvent evaporated off under reduced pressure. 1.46 g (yield=67%) of N-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide is obtained and used without other purification in the following stage.
