Procedure
4-(3-Fluoro-4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (853 mg, 2.45 mmol) was stirred in a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid/dichloromethane (5 mL, 25% v/v) for 20 min at room temperature. The reaction mixture was combined with 25 mL of CH2Cl2 and was washed with sat'd NaHCO3 (2×10 mL) and brine. The resulting CH2Cl2 layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and was concentrated to yield crude amine. The product was further purified by silica gel chromatography (gradient eluent 0-10% MeOH in dichloromethane) to provide 4-(3-fluoro-4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-piperazine (473 mg, 78%). The product was used directly in step 3.
