Reaction Steps

5 g of (2R)-2-bromo-3-phenylpropionic acid (HPLC: 92.5%) were treated at room temperature with 2.7 ml of triethylamine in 20 ml of toluene. After a stirring time of about 150 minutes, no precipitation of the product was to be observed. An HPLC analysis of the solution showed that the (2R)-2-bromo-3-phenylpropionic acid had reacted completely to give cinnamic acid.
