Procedure

A mixture of (R)-ethyl 4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)butanoate (1.5 g, 3.88 mmol), phenylboronic acid (0.710 g, 5.82 mmol), Pd(Ph3P)4 (0.449 g, 0.388 mmol) and aqueous Na2CO3 (3.88 mL, 7.77 mmol) in toluene (25 mL) is allowed to stir at 95° C. under nitrogen for 14 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and quenched with brine. The mixture is extracted twice with ethylacetate, and the combined organic layer is washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue is purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (heptane/EtOAc=100:0 to 50:50) to give (R)-ethyl-4-(biphenyl-4-yl)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)butanoate (1.30 g); HPLC retention time=1.61 minutes (condition B); MS (ES+)=328.0 (m-tBu+2); 284.1 (m-Boc+2; 100%); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 1.28 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3 H) 2.48 (A of ABX, Jab=16.1 Hz, Jax=5.9 Hz, 1 H) 2.53 (B of ABX, Jab=16.0 Hz, Jbx=5.3 Hz, 1 H) 2.83-3.00 (m, 2 H) 4.14-4.19 (m, 3 H) 5.06 (br s) 7.26-7.27 (m, 2 H) 7.31-7.35 (m, 2 H) 7.43 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 2H) 7.52-7.58 (m, 4 H).
