Procedure
A suspension of (S)-1-phenylethyl-ammonium (S)-2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-3-(phenyl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-propanoate (2.25 g, 4.69 mmol, 99.5% de) in aqueous isopropanol (50% strength, 6 ml) is admixed with 1N sulfuric acid (6 ml, 5.85 mmol) and stirred for 2 h at RT. The solid is filtered off with suction and dried to give (S)-2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-3-(phenyl-pyridin-2-ylamino)-propanoic acid (1.35 g, 81%, >99.9% ee) as a colorless solid.
