Hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate → (2S,3R)-benzyl 2-((S)-2-amino-3-hydroxypropanamido)-3-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To HCl-EtOAc (5 N, 10 mL) was added a solution of (2S,3R)-benzyl 2-((S)-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3-hydroxypropanamido)-3-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoate (646 mg, 1.32 mmol) in DCM (10 mL). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 min and then concentrated. The residue was washed with diethyl ether (5 mL) to afford (2S,3R)-benzyl 2-((S)-2-amino-3-hydroxypropanamido)-3-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propanoate (HCl salt, 474 mg, 85% yield) as a colorless solid.
