Reaction Steps

(S)-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-2-phenylethyl methanesulfonate (600 mg, 1.902 mmol) and sodium thiomethoxide (593 mg, 7.61 mmol) were added to a 20 mL microwave tube equipped with mechanical stir bar and charged with Dioxane (10 ml). The reaction was allowed to heat overnight at 45° C. The reaction was poured into 5 mL MeOH and 5 g silica, and the solvents were evaporated in vacuo. The dry-loaded crude product was purified on 50 g SNAP column 10-50% EtOAc/hexanes to provide (S)-tert-butyl (2-(methylthio)-1-phenylethyl)carbamate (387 mg, 1.447 mmol, 76% yield).
