Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-((((9H-fluoren-9-yl)methoxy)carbonyl)amino)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (5 g, 14.65 mmol) in MeOH (50 mL) was added H2SO4 (0.781 mL, 14.65 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux overnight. The resulting mixture was cooled to room temperature and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The crude material was adsorbed onto silica and purification by chromatography using a gradient of 0-100% EtOAc in iso-hexane afforded the title compound;
