Procedure
Treatment of (±)-{7-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl}methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (5.2 g, 11.57 mmol) with sodium azide (3.01 g, 46.3 mmol) generally according to the procedure described for Intermediate 98 gave (±)-2-(azidomethyl)-7-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran. Treatment of the azide with palladium on carbon (0.375 g, 10 wt. %) generally according to the procedure described for Example 1 provided 2.64 g (69%) of (±)-1-{7-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl}methanamine as a white solid, hydrochloride salt. mp 172-174° C.; Anal. calcd. for C16H14F3NOHCl: C, 58.28; H, 4.59; N, 4.25. Found: C, 58.09; H, 4.6; N, 4.03.
