Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Crude 3-[4-(5-isoxazolyl)-phenyl]-alanine ethyl ester (660 mg) is dissolved in chloroform (6.6 ml), stirred vigorously with 2N aqueous sodium carbonate (1.4 ml), and after cooling to 10° C., 3,5-dimethylbenzoylchloride (0.7 ml) is added. Stirring is continued for 1 hour at 10° C. and for 2 hours at ambient temperature. Then extraction with dichloromethane/water, washing with 10% aqueous citric acid, and with brine, followed by evaporation gives the crude product. Flash chromatography on silica gel, hexane/ethyl acetate (4:1), gives pure N-(3,5-dimethylbenzoyl)-3-[4-(5-isoxazolyl)-phenyl]-alanine ethyl ester.
