Procedure
10.8 g (47 mmol) of methyl ethoxycarbonyl-3-cyclobutyl-DL-alaninate (synthesised in Step B) is dissolved in 20 ml of benzene in the 250 ml vessel of the titrator. 100 ml of water is added and the pH of the solution is adjusted to 7.5 with 1M NaOH under stirring. 40 mg of enzyme [Subtilisin Carlsberg, Protease, Type VIII (Sigma)] is added, the pH readjusted to 7.5 and kept at this value during titration. The enzymatic hydrolysis is complete in 3 hours. The phases are separated. From the aqueous phase pure ethoxy-carbonyl-3-cyclobutyl-L-alanine can be isolated. The benzene phase is washed with 2×10 ml of 5% NaHCO3 and 2×10 ml of water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated at a pressure of 2.0-2.5 kPa. The resulting yellowish oil is considered to be pure and used without further treatment in the next step.
