Trifluoroacetic acid (3 ml, 17.5 mmol) was added to a solution of 4-(2-fluoroethyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (350 mg, 1.5 mmol) in methylene chloride (12 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 40 minutes, before the solvent was evaporated under high vacuum.
