Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-((N-methyl-N-((2-isopropyl-4-oxazolyl)methyl)amino)carbonyl)-L-valine methyl ester 10 (0.511 g, 0.00164 mol) in p-dioxane (10 mL) and H2O (5 mL) was added LiOH monohydrate (0.103 g, 0.00246 mol). After stirring at room temperature for 1 hr, the p-dioxane was removed by rotary evaporation in vacuo, and the remaining aqueous solution was treated with 1N aq HCl (2.46 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (4×100 mL). The combined organic extract was washed with saturated brine and dried for 15 mins over Na2SO4. Concentration in vacuo followed by CH2Cl2 chases (2×) afforded the desired compound as a white solid (0.480 g, 0.00161 mol, 98%): 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ0.90 (dd, J1 =6.9 Hz, J2 =2.4 Hz, 6H), 1.24 (d, J=6.9 Hz, 6H), 1.99-2.12 (m, 1H), 2.83 (s, 3H), 2.96-3.10 (m, 1H), 3.96 (dd, J1 =8.4 Hz, J2 =6 Hz, 1), 4.19-4.32 (m, 2H), 6.26 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.80 (s, 1H). Mass spectrum: (M+H)+ =298
