Reaction Steps

2.40 g (8.4 mmol) of 3-fluoro-2-methylsulfonyl-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid were treated with 12.1 ml (168 mmol; 40 percent strength) of aqueous methylamine solution and the mixture was stirred for 4 h at RT. For work-up, the contents were poured into 6 N HCl, the mixture was subsequently cooled in an ice-bath. The precipitate was filtered off with suction. This gave 2.50 g of product in 95% purity.
