Procedure

Step BF (1): To a slurry of N-(Benzyloxycarbonyl)-alpha-phosphonoglycine trimethyl ester (76.37 g, 230.5 mmol) in THF (210 mL) just thawed from a −78° C. bath was added tetramethylguanidine (28.85 mL, 230.0 mmol) dropwise. A cold solution of 3,5-dichlorobenzaldehyde (36.70 g, 209.7 mmol) in THF (52.5 mL) was added via cannula. The cold yellow solution was stirred for 1 hour, at which time TLC revealed no aldehyde remained. The THF was removed in vacuo, and EtOAc and 1M HCl was added. The mixture was extracted three times into EtOAc, and the combined organic layers were washed with water, brine, and then dried over MgSO4. Concentration in vacuo followed by recrystallization of the desired olefin isomer from EtOAc/hexane yielded pure product. Concentration of the mother liquor and recrystallization of the residue yielded, over 4 crops, 68.22 g (86% yield) of (Z)-methyl 2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)acrylate. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.28-7.42 (m, 7H) 7.16 (s, 2H) 6.55 (s, 1H) 5.10 (s, 2H) 3.79-3.90 (m, 3H).
