19.3 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid (2.8 eq) was added to a solution of cis-4-aminocyclohexane carboxylic acid (10 g, 69.83 mmol) in anhydrous ethyl alcohol (250 mL). Mixture was stirred overnight at about 60° C. and then cooled to room temperature. Solvent was evaporated in vacuo. Crude material was then redissolved in acetonitrile, sonicated, and concentrated to a solid in vacuo. This acetonitrile wash was repeated three times to obtain 11.5 g of while solid (96% yield). Trans-ethyl 4-aminocyclohexanecarboxylate hydrochloride can be prepared following the same procedure using trans-4-aminocyclohexane carboxylic acid.
