Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-fluorobenzoic acid (15.0 g, 0.11 mol) in DMF (400 mL) was added HOBt (24.59 g, 0.16 mol) and EDAC (20.53 g, 0.11 mol). The resulting mixture was stirred for 1 hr at room temperature at which time a solution of 2-amino-adamantane.HCl (20.1 g, 0.11 mol) and DIPEA (20.52 mL) in DMF (100 mL) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hrs and the volatiles evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in AcOEt and washed with aq. NaHCO3, brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent evaporated in vacuo affording 28.66 g, (98%) of 4-fluoro-N-adamantan-2-yl-benzamide as a solid.
