Reaction Steps

To a mixture of N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-methylglycine (10 g), 4-chloroaniline (8.8 g), benzotriazol-1-yloxy-tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP reagent, 25.7 g) and methylene chloride (150 ml) is added dropwise triethylamine (5.9 g) while the temperature of the mixture is kept at 0-5° C. After addition, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 8 hours, and thereto is added water. The methylene chloride layer is collected, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; chloroform), and recrystallized from diethyl ether to give 2-[N'-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N'-methylamino]-N-(4-chlorophenyl)acetamide, m.p. 126-128° C.
