To a mixture of 1.0 g (0.0054 mole) of 3-cyclopentylamino-propanoic acid ethyl ester, 0.842 g (0.00542 mole) of iodoethane and 15 mL of dry tetrahydrofuran, at −78 degrees, was added 11.4 mL (0.0114 mole) of a 1M solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in hexanes over 5 minutes. The mixture was stirred for one hour at −78 degrees, then the cooling bath was removed and the mixture stirred overnight at room temperature, and then poured into ice water containing 5 mL of 1M sodium hydroxide solution. The mixture was extracted with ether, and the ether extract washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 0.5125 g of (rac)-2-cyclopentylaminomethyl-butanoic acid ethyl ester, which was used without further purification in subsequent steps.
