Procedure

K2CO3 (13.8 g, 100 mmol, 1.76 eq.) and H2O (46 mL) were mixed to form a homogeneous solution. The solution was cooled to 20° C. N-methylaminoacetaldehyde dimethylacetal (12.8 mL, 100 mmol, 1.8 eq) and MeTHF (50 mL) were added. The resulting mixture was cooled to 2° C. Benzyl chloroformate (8.1 mL, 56.7 mmol, 1.0 eq.) was added by syringe over 10 minutes (addition was exothermic). The mixture was maintained at room temperature until completion of the reaction. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with 1N HCl (50 mL) and used directly in the next step.
