Procedure

Into a 100 mL single neck flask were placed N-[2-(4-cyano-3-fluorophenyl)ethyl](phenylmethoxy)carboxamide (2 g, 6.7 mmol) in THF: MeOH (25:25 mL). The mixture was treated with a 10% palladium on carbon (0.5 g, 25 mol%) and stirred under the hydrogen balloon for 12 hour. The reaction mixture was filtered through a Celite® cake. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced vacuum to provide the intermediate title compound, 4-(2-aminoethyl)-2-fluorobenzenecarbonitrile, (1.1 g, 100%) as a white solid. Electron spray M.S. 165 (M*+1).
