Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 4-[1-(4′-isopropyl-2,6-dimethyl-biphenyl-4-yloxy)-2-methyl-propyl]-benzoic acid (150 mg, 0.36 mmol) in methylene chloride (4 mL) is added triethyl amine (0.15 mL, 1.08 mmol), DMAP (5.0 mg), 3-Amino-2-hydroxy-propionic acid methyl ester (83 mg, 0.54 mmol) and EDCI (208 mg, 1.08 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight, loaded on silica gel, eluted with eluted with hexanes with a gradient from 0% of ethyl acetate to 100% of ethyl acetate giving the titled compound (150 mg).
