Procedure

To N-tert-butylamine (3.50 g, 0.0048 mol) in 75 mL of benzene was added 4-trifluoromethylbenzoyl chloride (5.00 g, 0.024 mol). The temperature was maintained below 15° C. during the addition and then the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for 3 hours. The solvent was then stripped and the residue was dissolved in 75 mL of dichloromethane. This solution was washed with 5% hydrochloride acid (2×75 mL), water (2×75 mL), dried over MgSO4 and then the solvent was removed in vacuo to provide 5.05 g (85-9% yield) of the title compound, m.p. 146-148° C.
