Reaction Steps

Thionyl chloride (0.6 ml) was added to a solution of trans-3-amino-cyclohexane carboxylic acid (0.5 g, 2.8 mmol) in MeOH (20 ml) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was heated to 65° C. and concentrated in vacuum. The resulting residue was partitioned between saturated sodium bicarbonate (10 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with brine solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum to afford 400 mg (90.9%) of trans-methyl 3-aminocyclohexanecarboxylate as colorless liquid.
