Procedure

The 2-undecyloxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde (16.2 g, 52.9 mmoles) in 100 ml of methanesulfonic acid was treated with L-methionine (16 g, 0.1057 mole) at room temperature for 48 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with ice-cold water and saturated sodium chloride solution. The organic extract was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, treated with charcoal and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The resulting solid was recrystallized twice from hexane to give 7.7 g (50%) of the product as a white solid, mp 66°-67° C.
