Phenylacetylisoglutamine can be synthesized by the reaction of phenylacetyl chloride with L-glutamine to yield phenylacetylglutamine, with subsequent heating under vacuum at 160° C. to yield 3-phenylacetylamino-2,6-piperidinedione, which can then be treated with sodium hydroxide. Also, phenylacetylisoglutamine can be prepared by treatment of phenylacetic acid with N,N′-disuccinimidyl carbonate in acetonitrile followed by reaction with L-isoglutamine in the presence of NaHCO3 in a 1:1 acetonitrile/water mixture. However, the second synthesis requires L-isoglutamine, which is expensive, so the former route of synthesis is preferred on economic grounds.
