Procedure

(E)-5-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-3,5-dimethylhex-2-enoic acid ethylester (1.95 g; 6.83 mmol) was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (25 mL) and water (15 mL). Lithium hydroxide (0.18 g; 7.52 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 12 hours at room temperature. Water (150 mL) and tert-butyl methyl ether (150 mL) was added. The aqueous phase was diluted with an aqueous solution of sodium hydrogensulfate (10%) until pH 2,5 and extracted with tert-butyl methylether (3×100 mL). The combined organic phases were dried (magnesium sulfate) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was recrystallized from heptane (20 mL) to afford 0.6 g of (2E)-5-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-3,5-dimethylhex-2-enoic acid.
