Reaction Steps

Methyl (4S)-4-[(tert-butoxy)carbonylamino]-5-hydroxypentanoate (9.11 mmol, 2.25 g) was dissolved in 30 mL of methylene chloride. p-Toluenesulfonyl chloride (9.1 mmol, 1.7 g) and triethylamine (27.33 mmol, 3.8 mL) were added and the reaction was stirred at room temperature overnight. Solvent was removed in vacuo and crude was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, 4:1 n-hexanes/ethyl acetate to 7:3 n-hexanes/ethyl acetate) to yield the title compound (1.98 g, 54% yield). ES-MS: 402 (M+1).
