Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 3-(aminomethyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (commercially available, 0.62 g, 2.87 mmol) in dichloromethane (28.0 ml) were added sequentially pyridine (0.5 ml, 5.73 mmol) and acetyl chloride (0.25 ml, 3.44 mmol). After 30 min the reaction was diluted with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and saturated aqueous sodium chloride. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (×3), and the combined organic layers were then dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting light yellow oil was purified by flash column chromatography (ISCO, SiO2, 0-10% methanol in ethyl acetate over 10 min) to afford (S)-tert-butyl 3-(acetamidomethyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (0.741 g, yield: almost quantitative, INTERMEDIATE 86A STEP 1).
