Procedure

N-Butylamine (5 mL, 51 mmol) was dissolved in t-butyl methyl ether (100 mL), and bromoacetic acid t-butyl ester (3.7 mL, 25 mmol) was then added to the solution. The obtained mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The generated precipitate was filtered, and the filtrate was then concentrated under reduced pressure, so as to obtain the title compound (4.67 g, yield: 100%) in the form of a colorless oily substance.
