Procedure
Potassium carbonate (2.61 g, 18.9 mmol) and benzyl bromide (2.24 mL, 18.9 mmol) were added to a solution of 4-hydroxymethyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (cis-trans=2.9:1 mixture) (2.49 g, 15.7 mmol) in DMF (31.5 mL) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for one hour. The reaction solution was cooled, and H2O (60 mL) was then added to the reaction solution, followed by extraction with hexane:ethyl acetate (2:1) (300 mL) twice. The organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane-ethyl acetate) to give 4-hydroxymethyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid benzyl ester (cis-trans=3.5:1 mixture) as a colorless oily substance (3.79 g, 97%).
