Reaction Steps

A suspension of (2-phthalimido-3-phenylpropyl)phosphonic acid in dry benzene is treated with phosphorus pentachloride and stirred at room temperature under argon for an hour. The mixture is then refluxed for 15 minutes, cooled and evaporated to dryness to room temperature (0.5 mm. of Hg). The residue is taken up in dry methylene chloride and reacted successively with a mixture of ethanol (1 eq.) and triethylamine (1 eq.) in methylene chloride and (S)-3-amino-2-oxopiperidineacetic acid, ethyl ester according to the procedure of Example 1(g). Work up of the reaction mixture according to the procedure of Example 1(g) yields (S)-3-[[[2-phthalimido-3-phenylpropyl]ethoxyphosphinyl]amino]-2-oxo-1-piperidineacetic acid, ethyl ester.
