Procedure

In a 50 mL round-bottom flask the amine 5 (1.65 g 4.7 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (15 ml) and K2CO3 (5.16 g, 37 mmol) was added. t-Butyl bromoacetate (4.55 g, 23.4 mmol) was slowly dropped into the stirred heterogeneous mixture, while maintaining the temperature <10° C. (ice bath). After the addition the mixture was heated at 60° C. with stirring until TLC showed complete conversion. The precipitate was filtered and washed with dichloromethane; the filtrate and the washings were combined and evaporated in vacuo to give the crude product. The semisolid residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (petroleum ether/ethyl acetate 9.3/0.7), obtaining pure 6 as pale yellow oil (1.35 g, 36%). ESI-MS: 832 (MNa+), 810 (MH+); (Calc. for C46H87N3O8: 809 u.m.a.).
