Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-cyano-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid methyl ester (1070 mg, 6.40 mmol), N-hydroxyamine as a free base solution was prepared by the addition of triethylamine (9.8 mL, 64 mmol) to a solution of N-hydroxyamine HCl salt (4.4 g, 64 mmol) in DMSO (40 mL), stirred at room temperature for 5 min, filtered, and rinsed with THF. The reaction was heated in a sealed vial in an oil bath at 80° C. overnight. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL) washed with aqueous saturated ammonium chloride (200 mL) and brine (200 mL). The water layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL) and the resulting second organic layer was washed with brine (200 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to give 4-(N-hydroxycarbamimidoyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid methyl ester (770 mg, 60%) as a white solid. LCMS calcd for C9H16N2O3 (m/e) 200, obsd 201 (M+H).
