The solution is chilled with stirring in an ice bath. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (4.12 g.) is added and the mixture is stirred 15 minutes in the ice bath and 16 hours at room temperature. The precipitate is filtered off and the filtrate concentrated to dryness in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed with 5% aqueous potassium bisulfate, water, saturated sodium bicarbonate and water. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to dryness in vacuo to obtain 1-(2-ethoxycarbonylpropanoyl)-L-proline tert.-butyl ester, yield 5.9 g.
