Procedure

2-(S)-(2-Acetoxymethyl-4-amino-3-methyl-benzyl)-succinic acid diethyl ester (3.0 g, 8.2 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (40 mL). Mixture was warmed to 60° C. N-Chlorosuccinimide (1.29 g, 9.7 mmol) was added to the warm solution. Reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 10 minutes. Mixture was cooled to room temperature then diluted with ethyl acetate (20 mL). Mixture was washed successively with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (40 mL), and brine (20 mL). Organic was dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Silica gel chromatography (ethyl acetate-hexanes) afforded the desired product in 59% yield as an amber oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ=6.98 (s, 1H), 5.15 (d, J=3.3, 2H), 4.09 (m, 4H), 2.99 (m, 2H), 2.69 (m, 2H), 2.39 (dd, J1=4.8, J2=16.5, 1H), 2.17 (s, 3H), 2.06 (s, 3H), 1.20 (m, 6H). MS m/e (M−C2H4O2+H)+=340.0.
