Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 2-(R)-2-[carboxymethyl(4-methoxybenzenesulfonyl)amino]-3-methylbutyric acid benzyl ester (example 1) (905 mg, 2.08 mmol) in methylene chloride (18 mL) were added sequentially triethylamine (0.72 mL, 5.14 mmol), benzylamine (0.25 mL, 2.29 mmol) and (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (1.01 grams, 2.28 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and then diluted with ethyl acetate. The solution was washed with 0.5 N hydrochloric acid solution and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel using a 2:5:16 ratio of methylene chloride/ethyl acetate/hexane affording 2-(R)-2-[benzylcarbamoylmethyl)(4-methoxybenzenesulfonyl)amino]-3-methylbutyric acid benzyl ester as a clear oil, 933 mg (86%).
