Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-nitrophenol (63.7 g), bromocyclopentane (68.2 g), potassium carbonate (63.3 g) and DMF (300 ml) was heated at 80° C. for 24 hours. After cooling, it was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was hydrogenated by method B. This resulted in the product with the molecular weight of 177.25 (C11H15NO); MS (ESI): 178 (M+H+).
