A mixture of (2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-2-methyl-propylamino)-acetic acid methyl ester (compound N; 26.5 g) in DCM (800 mL) was stirred at ambient temperature, TFA (180 mL) was added drop-wise. The mixture was stirred at 30-40° C. for 5 h before it was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between dissolved toluene and water. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residual solid was dissolved in a mixture of ethanol (400 mL) and methanol (90 mL). K2CO3 (207 g) was added and the mixture was refluxed overnight. The mixture was cooled to room temperature. DCM (2500 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at ambient temperature. The solid was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford 6,6-dimethyl-piperazin-2-one (Compound I; 5.85 g) as a white solid sufficiently pure for the next step.
