Reaction Steps

To a solution of isonipecotic acid methyl ester HCl (2-3b) (34 g, 0.19 mol), and di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (43.5 g, 0.2 mol) in THF (300 mL) and H2O (150 mL) was added-K2CO3 (28.8 g, 0.21 mol). After 4 hours, the mixture was poured into water, extracted with EtOAc then washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to give the title compound 2-3c as an oil with a small amount of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate.
