Reaction Steps

To a solution of S-trityl cysteamine (1.60 g, 5.00 mmol) and 4-hydroxymethylbenzoic acid pentafluorophenyl ester (MilliGen, 1.51 g, 5.00 mmol) in dichloromethane (40 ml) was added N-methylmorpholine (0.55 ml, 5.0 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 36 hrs. Precipitated material was filtered off, washed with dichloromethane and dried to give 1.30 g (57%) of white solid.
