Procedure

A solution of 2-acetylamino-3-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-propionic acid 20 (13.4 grams, 60.09 mmol) and 2-amino-3-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-propionic acid methyl ester 1 (11.7 grams, 60.00 mmol) in anhydrous dichloro methane (100 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere at 0° C. is added dropwise to a solution of 1,3-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (31 grams, 150.24 mmol) in dichloro methane (75 mL). The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. The resulting solids are filtered off. The organic phase is washed with 5% sodium bicarbonate (2×25 mL) and water (2×25 mL), dried over sodium sulphate, and distilled to give crude 21, which can be purified in appropriate solvent.
