Reaction Steps

The p-aminophenylacetic acid described in Example 1 is converted into p-cyanophenylacetic acid by diazotisation in the manner described in J. Chem. Soc., 1941, 745, the yield being 47% of theory; m.p. 138°-141° C. It is then hydrogenated in the presence of platinum catalyst in hydrochloric acid solution to give 4-aminomethylcyclohexylacetic acid; yield 63% of theory; m.p. 120-123° C. (decomp.).
