A 25% (by weight) sodium methoxide in methanol solution (14.2 ml; 625 mmole; 4.6 eq.; d=0.945) and α-methyl-[2-(2-amino-5-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]propanedioic acid, dimethyl ester (5.96 g; 13.56 mmole) in methanol (30 ml) and dry dimethylformamide (35 ml) were refluxed (~95° C.) overnight. 1N Hydrochloric acid was added with stirring producing a white precipitate that was collected by suction-filtration, washed with water (three times) and dried in vacuo giving 4.88 g of a white solid which contained an impurity as shown by NMR. The impurity disappeared after the sample stood overnight.
