Procedure
Sodium cyanide (5.8 g, 119 mmol) was added to a mixture of 4-amino-2-fluoro-N-methylbenzamide (5 g, 29.8 mmol) and cyclobutanone (4.4 mL, 59.5 mmol) in AcOH (90%, 25 mL) and EtOH (25 mL) hooked up to a NaOH scrubber and the resulting mixture was heated to 80° C. overnight. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and poured in water. The yellow precipitate was filtered, washed with water, and dried to afford 6.5 g of 4-((1-cyanocyclobutyl)amino)-2-fluoro-N-methylbenzamide as a pale yellow solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.81 (t, 1H), 7.56 (t, 1H), 7.37 (s, 1H), 6.46 (dd, 1H), 6.30 (dd, 1H), 2.80-2.71 (m, 5H), 2.41-2.31 (m, 2H), 2.13-2.00 (m, 2H)
