Procedure

In 250 ml of water-dioxane (1:1) was suspended 10 g of 2-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-3-yl)glycine and under cooling at 0°-5° C. the above amino acid was dissolved by addition of 70 ml of 1 N sodium hydroxide. To this solution was added 15 ml of benzyloxycarbonyl chloride and, with adjusting pH to 7.1-7.4 with sodium hydrogen carbonate, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature as above for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the organic solvent and the concentrate was washed with ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was adjusted to pH 1 with conc. hydrochloric acid and allowed to stand in a refrigerator overnight to give crystals. Yield 15.8 g.
