Oxalyl chloride (8.7 mL, 99.7 mmol) and several drops of N,N-dimethylformaldehyde (hereinafter DMF) were added to a solution of dichloromethane (40 mL) containing 4-benzyloxybenzoic acid (11.1 g, 48.6 mmol) under ice-cooling. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, and then the solvent was evaporated. The resulting residue was dissolved in dichloromethane (100 mL), and then glycine tert-butyl ester hydrochloride (8.20 g, 48.9 mmol) and N-ethyl-N,N-diisopropylamine (21 mL, 120 mmol) were added thereto under ice-cooling. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 19 hours, and then water was added thereto to terminate the reaction. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane twice, and the organic layers were combined and concentrated. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate, 9:1 to 2:1, v/v) to give N-[4-(benzyloxy)benzoyl]glycine tert-butyl ester. All the given ester was dissolved in methanol (165 mL), and 20% palladium hydroxide-carbon (926 mg) was added thereto. The mixture was vigorously stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 3.5 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite and then concentrated to give 12.2 g of the title compound (colorless crystalline solid, yield: quantitative).
