Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of benzyl(4-trifluoromethylcyclohexyl)amine (Preparation 4) (1.48 g, 5.73 mmol) in MeOH (150 mL) was passed through an H-Cube at 100° C. fitted with a 10% Pd/C CatCart and on full H2 mode. The volume was reduced to 50 mL and 4M HCl in dioxane (1.43 mL) was added. The precipitate was filtered, the filtrate collected and the solvent removed in vacuo. The resulting residue was triturated with acetone to give the title compound: δH (CD3OD) 1.41-1.53 (4H, m), 2.03-2.25 (5H, m), 3.07-3.15 (1H, m).
