Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of (S)-3-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-2-hydroxy-pentanoic acid (2.00 g, 8.57 mmol) and N-hydroxy-cyclopropanecarboxamidine (1.03 g, 10.29 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) was stirred at 0° C. and 1.25 equivalents of N-cyclohexylcarbodiimide-N′-methyl polystyrene (1.70 mmol/g, 6.30 g, 10.72 mmol) was added in portions. The reaction mixture stirred under nitrogen for three hours while warming to 15° C. The reaction mixture was filtered, the resin washed with dichloromethane and the filtrate evaporated under vacuum to dryness. [LC/MS m/z=338 (M+H+Na)].
