The mixed anhydride preparation was filtered, and the filtrate was added to 120 ml of ethereal diazomethane. After stirring the reaction solution for 30 min at 0° C., 80 ml of ether was added. The product crystallized from the reaction solution in the cold. The Boc-Arg(HO2)CHNH2 product was dissolved in a minimum volume of THF and was allowed to react with ethanol HCl (20 mmol) at room temperature until nitrogen evolution ceased.
