Procedure
Nα-(tert-Butyloxycarbonyl)-Nα-(2-methylpropyl) glycine methyl ester (960 mg, 3.91 mmol) was dissolved in THF/H2O (9:1, 25 ml). Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (492 mg, 11.7 mmol) was added. After 18 h at room temperature the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 ml). This solution was washed with 1M HCl, water and brine, dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo to give a colourless oil identified as the title compound (360 mg, 1.56 mmol, 40%).
