Reaction Steps

Under nitrogen atmosphere, to a stirred mixture of (2R*,3R*)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-[(4-phenylphenyl)-methoxy-carbonylamino]-pentanoic acid and (2R*,3S*)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-[(4-phenylphenyl)-methoxy-carbonylamino]-pentanoic acid (0.059 g, 0.17 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2 (7.0 mL), at 0° C., Et3N (0.07 mL, 0.5 mmol) and subsequently TBTU (0.065 g, 0.2 mmol) were added. The mixture was left stirring at 0° C. for 1 h and at rt for 15 h. The organics were then removed under reduced pressure, and the resulting crude product purified by column chromatography, using a Teledyne ISCO apparatus, eluting with Cy:AcOEt (from 90:10 to 80:20) to afford the pure title compound (0.01 g, 17%), as pure anti diastereoisomer, as white solid. MS (ESI) m/z: 357 [M−NH4]+; (ESI) m/z: 338 [M−H]−. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 0.89 (d, J=6.79 Hz, 3H), 0.97 (d, J=6.57 Hz, 3H), 1.81-2.12 (m, 1H), 4.26 (dd, J=4.38, 9.11 Hz, 1H), 4.80 (dd, J=4.39, 8.16 Hz, 1H), 5.12 (s, 2H), 7.29-7.54 (m, 5H), 7.63-7.77 (m, 4H), 8.26 (d, J=8.21 Hz, 1H).
