TEA (0.73 ml) was added dropwise to a suspension of Leu-OBzl.TsOH (1.97 g) and CDI (0.85 g) in THF (10 ml) at 0°~5° C. over a period of 5 min and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 h. Perhydroazepine (0.67 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 14 h, and poured into water (100 ml).
