Participants

Reaction Steps

Dimethyl (2R)-2-amino-12-t-butoxycarbonyl-4-thia-1,13-tridecanedicarboxylate (3.39 g, 8.36 mmol) is dissolved in methylene chloride (50 ml) and hydrogen chloride gas is bubbled through the solution for 5 minutes. The reaction mixture is stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. The solvent is evaporated to give dimethyl (2R)-2-amino-12-carboxy-4-thia-1,13-tridecanedicarboxylate hydrochloride as an oil.
