Sodium Bicarbonate → benzyl (S)-2-amino-3-cyclopentylpropylmethylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (S)-tert-butyl 1-cyclopentyl-3-(N-methyl-N-(2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxycarbonyl)amino)propan-2-ylcarbamate (550 mg) in TFA/CH2Cl2 (10 mL, 20% v/v) was stirred for 2 hrs at 5° C. The reaction was neutralized with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×30 mL). The combined extracts were washed with saturated brine (30 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated to give (S)-benzyl 2-amino-3-cyclopentylpropyl(methyl)carbamate (420 mg) that was used without further purification.
