Procedure
(S)-3-Amino-2-oxetanone tosylate salt (100 mg, 0.385 mmol) was added to pyrazole (131 mg, 1.93 mmol) in distilled DMF (3.0 mL) and the mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 2.5 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo at 25° C. and the residue was dissolved in H2O (3 mL) and applied to a column of BioRad AG50-X8 (trademark) (1×10 cm, H+ form) The resin was washed with H2O (30 mL) and eluted with a gradient of aqueous NH4OH (0 to 0.25N over 70 mL, then 100 mL of 0.25N NH4OH). The product emerged chromatographically pure with 0.25N NH4OH and was lyophilized (2×) and dried in vacuo over P2O5 to yield 77% (46.2 mg) of β-(pyrazol-1-yl)-L-alanine (mp 234°-236° C. (dec)). For an improved melting point this material could be recrystallized from H2O/ EtOH: mp 241°-243° C. (lit. mp 236°-238° C. (dec), 243° C. (dec)); [α]D25 -72(±1) (c 0.54, H2O) (lit.
