Reaction Steps

(S)-Cysteine is reacted with benzoic acid to form 2-phenylthiazoline-4-carboxylic acid. 2-Phenylthiazoline-4-carboxylic acid is amidated with 4-benzyloxazolidone. The amidated 2-phenylthiazoline-4-carboxylic acid is alkylated with methyl iodide in the presence of TiCl4 and lithium diisopropylamide. The alkylated species is hydrolyzed by lithium hydroxide in methanol to obtain (S)-2-methylcysteine methyl ester.
