Participants

Reaction Steps

1.1 g of 3-amino-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid hydrochloride, prepared according to J. Agric. Food Chem., 1977, 25, 965, are dissolved in 25 ml of dioxane and 10 ml of 1N NaOH are added; 1.12 g of 2-naphthalenesulphonyl chloride are gradually added while maintaining the pH at 11.5-12 by addition of 1N NaOH. After stirring for 2 hours at RT, the reaction medium is diluted in water, washed with EtOAc (twice) and then acidified to pH=1.5-2 by addition of 6N HCl. The white precipitate formed is drained, washed with water and dried in order to obtain 0.82 g of the expected product, m.p.=190-200° C.
