Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S,4S)-4-acetylthio-N-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-2-[4-[N-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)aminomethyl]phenethyl]pyrrolidine (495 mg, 0.777 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran-methanol (2:1, 15 ml), 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide (1.5 ml, 1.5 mmol) was added in a nitrogen stream under cooling with ice. After this reaction solution was stirred at the same temperature for 2 hours, 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid (2.0 ml, 2.0 mmol) was added thereto, and this mixed solution was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off in vacuo to give a crude product of (2R,4S)-4-mercapto-N-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-2-[4-[N-(p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)aminomethyl]phenethyl]-pyrrolidine.
