The title compound is prepared from commercially available 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and N-acetylglycine according to a literature procedure (E.M. Oltz, R. C. Bruening, M. J. Smith, K. Kustin and K. Nakanishi in J. Am. Chem. 1998, 110 (18), 6162-6172). The resolution of the racemic N-acetyl-3,4,5-trimethoxy-phenylalanine methyl ester is performed by enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of the L-ester using Alcalase® (Novo Nordisk) as described in the literature (J. J. Nestor, Jr., T. L. Ho, R. A. Simpson, B. L. Horner, G. H. Jones, G. I. McRae and B. H. Vickery in J. Med. Chem. 1982, 25 (7), 795-801; or O. D. Tyagi & P. M. Boll in Indian J. Chem. 1992, pp. 851-854).
