Procedure

L-Valine (30 mmol, 3.52 g) and triethylamine (60 mmol, 8.36 mL) were combined in 275 mL of 1:1 dioxane-water. Solid carbon dioxide pieces were added with stirring to achieve pH 8.5, and then N-CBZ-L-proline 4-nitrophenyl ester (Sigma, 30 mmol, 11.11 g) was added to the solution with stirring at room temperature. After 20 hours, the clear yellow solution was acidified by gradual addition of 1 N HCl, concentrated by rotary evaporation at reduced pressure, and diluted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was separated, washed with water (5×) and brine (2×), dried (MgSO4), and rotovapped to give an oil residue. Crystallization of this residue from hot ethyl acetate-hexane afforded 7.15 g (68%) of N-CBZ-L-prolyl-L-valine as a white solid, m.p. 132°-134° C., lit. m.p. 134°-136° C.; G. R. Pettit, "Synthetic Peptides," Vol. 1, 154 (1970).
