Procedure
N-(2-pyridinylmethoxycarbonyl)-L-leucine methyl ester (490 mg, 1.75 mmol) was dissolved in THF (7.0 mL) and methyl iodide (0.435 ml, 6.99 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. in a flask protected from moisture. Sodium hydride dispersion (236 mg, 2.62 mmol) was added cautiously and the suspension was sired for 5 hours at room temperature. Ethyl acetate was then added, followed by water, dropwise. The solution was concentrated in vacuo, and the oily residue partitioned between ether and water. The organic layer was washed with sated aqueous NaHCO3 and the combined aqueous extracts acidified to pH 3 with citric acid. The product was extracted with ethyl acetate, the extract was washed with water, 5% aqueous sodium thiosulfate and water, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate/hexane, 3:1) to give a yellow oil (235 mg, 46%). MS (ESI): 295.4 (M+H)+.
