2-Hydroxy-propanoic acid methyl ester (6.66 g) was dissolved in MeCN (34 mL) and the solution cooled to 5° C. Triethylamine (9.8 mL) was added followed by trimethylamine hydrochloride (0.62 g). A solution of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (11.6 g) in MeCN (34 mL) (sonicated to complete dissolution) was added over 20 min maintaining the temperature of the reaction below 5° C. The reaction was filtered through Celite and washed through with further MeCN. The filtrate was concentrated almost to dryness (bath 30° C.) and partitioned between diethyl ether and water. The organic layer was separated, dried (MgSO4) and the solvents removed to give the sub titled product as a yellow oil that solidified in the freezer (13.71g).
