Reaction Steps

(2R)-2-amino-3-phenylpropyl carbamate (2.397 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane and methansulfonic acid (0.47 ml, 3 eq) and phenyl isocyanate (1.56 ml, 6 eq) was added in an ice bath. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred for 1 day. Water was added to terminate the reaction and the reaction mixture was neutralized to pH 7-8 with 1N NaOH solution. The organic layer was extracted 3 times with dichloromethane, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo, to give oil. This was dissolved in dichloromethane and the solution was treated with a solution of HCl in ethyl ether. The resulting precipitate was filtered to give (2R)-2-amino-3-phenylpropyl (anilinocarbonyl)carbamate; hydrochloride.
