Sodium Hydroxide → (R)-2-Amino-N-benzyl-3-methoxypropionamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a 100 mL single-neck flask, 5.6 g (0.02 mol) (R)-N-benzyl-2-(ethoxycarbonylamino)-3-methoxypropionamide and 50 mL 31% concentrated hydrochloric acid were added, the mixture was heated and refluxed for 6-10 hr. After the reaction was completed, 30% sodium hydroxide solution was added to adjust the pH value of the system to 8-9. The reaction liquid was extracted with 50 mL×2 dichloromethane, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The product can be directly used in following synthesis without further purification.
