The solvent was evaporated and the oily residue was dissolved in 3 mL water and 6 mL DMF and stirred with sodium carbonate (0.82 g 7.2 mmol) and 4-butynyloxy-benzenesufonyl chloride (0.78 g, 3.18 mmol) at room temperature overnight. After evaporating the solvent, the residue was diluted with ethyl acetate and water. The aqueous layer was acidified to pH˜3 with concentrated HCl and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to obtain 1.2 g of (2S)-2-{[4-(2 butynyloxy)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)-3-[(2-hydroxyethyl)sulfanyl]-3-methylbutanoic acid as an oil. Yield 89.6%. Electrospray Mass Spec 400.1 (M−H)−.
