Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-3-(2-pyridyl)propanoic acid (55.0 g), glycine benzyl ester tosylate (69.7 g), and diphenylphosphoryl azide (46.7 ml) in N,N-dimethylformamide (550 ml) was added dropwise N,N-diisopropylethylamine (75.6 ml) at 4° C. The mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 3 hours. The resulting mixture was poured into ice-cold saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (700 ml). The mixture was extracted twice with ethyl acetate (total 1.3 L) and washed successively with water (400 ml×2), saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution (200 ml), aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (300 ml×2), and brine (40 ml). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated to give the title compound (77.4 g) as pale brown crystals.
