Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.43 g of N-[3,5-bis[(tetradecyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl]-N-[2-(phenylmethoxy)-2-oxoethyl]glycine phenylmethyl ester and 0.2 g of 10% palladium on carbon in 30 ml of ethyl acetate and 20 ml of THF was shaken under an initial hydrogen pressure of 51 psi for 2 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated at reduced pressure to a solid which was recrystallized from methanol-water to give 0.28 g (82% yield, mp 84°-87°) of N-(carboxy-methyl)-N-[3,5-bis[(tetradecyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl]glycine.
