Reaction Steps
A mixture of 80 parts of p-fluorobenzotrifluoride, 114 parts of valine, 135 parts of potassium carbonate, 65 parts of tetra(n-butyl)ammonium iodide, and 630 parts of sulfolane was placed in a pressure reactor. The reactor was degassed, placed under an argon atmosphere, sealed, and then heated and maintained at about 140° C. for about 18 hours. Analysis of the reaction product indicated 53.0% yield of 2-(4-trifluoromethylphenylamino)-3-methylbutanoic acid, based on p-fluorobenzotrifluoride starting materials.
