In yet another embodiment, (2S,3aR,7aS)-benzyl octahydro-1H-indole-2-carboxylate hydrochloride salt (3), is produced using a starting material of crystalline ((1S,2S)-2-(S)-1-phenylethylamino)cyclohexyl)methanol (11). The first step of the process involves reaction with a catalyst including palladium on carbon in the presence of methanol to produce ((1S,2S)-2-aminocyclohexyl)methanol (17). Compound (17) is subjected to treatment with sodium cyanide in the presence of formaldehyde to produce compound (18). Subsequently, compound (18) is first reacted with trimethylsilyl chloride, and then the product of that reaction is treated with benzyl chloride to produce compound (19). Further, compound (19) is subjected to three sequential reactions to produce compound (20) as illustrated in FIG. 3. Specifically, compound (19) is first subjected to treatment with hydrochloric acid. Subsequently, methanesulfonyl chloride is added to the reaction mixture. Thereafter, potassium hydroxide is added to the reaction to produce compound (20). After compound (20) is produced, the compound is treated with aqueous mineral acid to produce the hydrochloride salt of compound (5).
