Tert-butyl 2-(butylamino)acetate → N2 (6,7-dimethoxy-2-naphthylsulfonly)-L-arginyl-N-butylglycine tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 2.64 g of N-butylglycine tert-butyl ester in 20 ml of chloroform was carefully added N2 -(6,7-dimethoxy-2-naphthylsulfonyl)-L-arginyl chloride obtained above. The reaction mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hour. At the end of this period, the reaction mixture was washed twice with 20 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution and evaporated to dryness. The residue was triturated with a small amount of water to give a crystalline material. This was collected by filtration and recrystallized from ethanol-ethyl ether to give 2.28 g (82 percent) of N2 -(6,7-dimethoxy-2-naphthylsulfonyl)-L-arginyl-N-butylglycine tert-butyl ester, M.P. 164-166° C, I.R. (KBr): 3,390, 3,165, 1,735, 1,370 cm-1.
