Procedure

To the flask of 2-(4-Amino-3-nitrophenyl)propanoic acid residue was added EtOH (200 mL) and catalytic amounts of sulfuric acid (1 mL) at room temperature. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 6 hrs then cooled to room temperature. The mixture was diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo.
