A solution of 4.8 g of t-butoxycarbonyl-N-methylphenylalanine in 150 ml of tetrahydrofuran was hydrogenated at 60° for about four days using 60 psi hydrogen gas and 5% rhodium on carbon. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate concentrated to give the title compound (3.5 g) as a colorless oil. The oil was used without further purification. Structure assignment was supported by the nmr spectrum (loss of aromatic protons and appearance of cyclohexyl protons) and by elemental analysis.
