Procedure

Solid ammonium formate (2.27 g, 36 mmol) was added in small portions at 0° C. to a methanol (50 mL, degassed with nitrogen for 2 h) suspension of (R)-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-(3,4-dinitro-phenyl)-propionic acid methyl ester (1.45 g, 3.6 mmol) and zinc powder (1.41 g, 21.6 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvents were removed in vacuo and then toluene (30 mL, degassed) and ethyl acetate (30 mL, degassed) were added, followed by acetic acid (3 mL). The mixture was further diluted until all organic solids dissolved, then it was washed with water, brine and dried over sodium sulfate. After filtration, solvents were removed in vacuo to afford the title compound containing 1 equivalent of acetic acid as a reddish gummy solid (85%). Mass Spec.: 344.18 (MH)+.
