Procedure

Add perfluoropropyl iodide (6.6 mL, 48.0 mmol, from Aldrich, stabilized with Cu) dropwise, under N2, to a -78° C. solution of Boc-Val-Pro-Val-OCH3 ] (3.89, 9.0 mmol) in anhydrous diethyl ether (100 mL). Add methyllithium-lithium bromide complex (28.5 mL, 42.0 mmol) at a rate which maintains an internal reaction temperature below -70° C. Stir the reaction mixture at -78° C. for 1 hour, then remove the cold bath and continue stirring for 5 minutes. Pour the reaction mixture into H2O (100 mL) and acidify the aqueous phase with 1N HCl. Extract the aqueous phase with additional diethyl ether (100 mL) and dry (MgSO4) the combined ethereal extracts. Remove the solvent in vacuo and purify the resultant yellow foam by flash chromatography (4.0×25 cm column eluted with 3:1 Et2O-hexane) to yield the title compound as a white foam.
