Procedure
Acetyl chloride (3.9 mL) was added to methanol (90 mL) at 0° C. and stirred for 20 minutes before addition of 4,4-difluoro-azepane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as a solution in methanol (10 mL). After 30 minutes, HCl in dioxane (4 N, 40 mL) was added cautiously and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The solution was concentrated, triturated with ether, filtered and dried under vacuum overnight to afford the title compound as an off-white solid (2.1 g). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO): δ 9.5 (s, 2H), 3.2-3.1 (m, 4H), 2.5-2.4 (m, 2H), 2.3-2.2 (m, 2H), 1.9-1.8 (m, 2H).
