Reaction Steps

A solution of 31.5 g of the N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of N-benzyloxycarbonylglycine [J. Am. Chem. Soc., 86, 1839, (1964)] in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran is reacted dropwise with 12 g of 6-amino-1-hexanol in 50 ml of 50% methanol in tetrahydrofuran. The reaction is stirred for 12 hours at 23° C. and poured into water. The resulting precipitate is washed thoroughly with water, filtered, and dried to provide crude N-(benzyloxycarbonylglycyl)-6-amino-1-hexanol. The pure compound recrystallized from ethyl acetate has a melting point of 104°-5° C.
