Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-fluorobenzonitrile (1.0 g, 8.26 mmol) and 3-aminopropanol (4.54 g, 58.7 mmol) was refluxed under an inert atmosphere (N2) for 15 h. Water (500 mL) and diethyl ether (500 mL) were then added, and the resulting organic layer separated, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (heptane:EtOAc; 1:3) to give the sub-title compound in 84% yield.
