Stir cyano-isobutyrylamino-acetic acid ethyl ester (139 g, 701 mmol) mechanically stir as a slurry in toluene (1.4 L) at rt under N2. Add lawesson's reagent (170 g, 420 mmol, 0.6 eq.) in portions and heat the thick slurry to 70° C. and stir for 12 hours until complete by TLC (2:1/heptane:THF). Cool the mixture and concentrate to dryness in vacuo on a rotovapor to obtain 353 g of thick yellow oil that was partially purified by silica gel plug (1 Kg silica gel 60, 1.5 vol. warm 2:1/THF:heptane as diluent, 2:1/heptane:THF as eluent). Combine the product containing filtrates and concentrate to dryness in vacuo on a rotovapor to obtain 194 g of crude solid. Dissolve the solid in EtOAc (400 mL) at 50-60° C. with stirring, then allow to cool gradually to rt. Precipitate the product and was cool to 0-5° C. with stirring for 30 minutes, isolate by suction filtration, rinse with cold EtOAc (2×50 mL), then dry in a vacuum oven at 50° C. to afford a first crop of 76.3 g (51%) of the title compound. Obtain a second crop of 17.6 g (12%)=from the filtrate after concentration in vacuo and silica gel chromatography (1 Kg silica gel 60, 2:1/heptane:THF). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.23 (bs, 2H), 4.21 (q, 2H, J=6.95 Hz), 3.02 (dq, 1H, J=6.95 Hz), 1.27 (t, 3H, J=6.95 Hz), 1.22 (d, 6H, J=6.95 Hz). 3C NMR (75 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 163.72, 160.08, 156.20, 118.08, 58.99, 32.27, 22.35 (2); 14.46. IR (CHCl3) 3483, 3347, 2975, 2933, 2868, 1668, 1582, 1530, 1494, 1464, 1409, 1382 cm−1. HRMS (ES) M/z calculated for C9H14N2O2S 215.0854, found 215.0842.
