Participants

Reaction Steps

Cyclopentanecarbonyl chloride (78 mg, 0.588 mmol) and NaOH (0.705 mL, 0.705 mmol) were dropped at the same time to a stirred solution of (S)-2-((((9H-fluoren-9-yl)methoxy)carbonyl)amino)-4-aminobutanoic acid (200 mg, 0.588 mmol) in THF (1.5 mL) and of NaOH (1N, 0.7 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at rt for 1 h at which time LC-MS showed desired product peak. The reaction solution was acidified with 1N HCl and extracted with EtOAc (60 mL×1). The crude materials were purified via flash chromatography (ISCO, silica gel, 12 g column; flow rate 30 mL/min, 100% DCM to 20% MeOH/DCM). Fractions containing the desired product were combined and dried via centrifugal evaporation to provide the title compound (84.1 mg, 33%).
