Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 3,3-dicyclohexylpropionyl chloride (6.1 g, 0.063 mol) in 70 ml of chloroform was treated portionwise at 7°-12° C. with a solution of 8.3 g (0.063 mol) of glycine tert-butyl ester and 8.9 ml (0.064 mol) of triethylamine in 30 ml of chloroform. After the addition, the solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, kept overnight, refluxed for 0.5 hours, cooled, washed with water (5×25 ml), dried (magnesium sulfate), and the solvent removed on a rotary evaporator, to give a light yellow viscous oil. The latter, which crystallized partly on standing, was dissolved in 50 ml of boiling hexane, cooled, seeded, and rubbed; a crystalline solid gradually separated. After crystallizing at room temperature and cooling overnight, the voluminous colorless solid was filtered, washed with cold hexane and air-dried (13.3 g, melting point 72°-74° C. s, 69° C.).
