Reaction Steps

In an analogous manner as described in Example 2, 1-aminomethyl-1-cyclohexane-acetic acid hydrochloride is reacted with methanol in the presence of hydrogen chloride. After evaporation in a vacuum the residue is recrystallised from methanol/ether to give pure methyl 1-aminomethyl-1-cyclohexane-acetate; m.p. 150° - 152° C. (hydrochloride)
