Reaction Steps

4-(1-Cyclohexen-1-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (D66) (850 mg, 3.16 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (63 ml) and hydrogenated using an H-Cube, using palladium on carbon at 40° C. with a flow rate of 2 mL/min. The solvent was removed in vacuo to give the title compound as a white solid (822 mg). δH (CDCl3, 400 MHz): 8.08 (1H, d), 7.94 (1H, dd), 7.52 (1H, d), 6.54 (2H, brs), 2.97 (1H, m), 1.90-1.75 (5H, m), 1.50-1.22 (5H, m). MS (ES): C14H16F3NO requires 271; found 272 (MH+).
