Procedure

5-benzyl-3,6-dioxo-2-piperazine acetic acid methyl ester can be prepared by condensating N-formyl-L-aspartic acid anhydride with L-phenylalanine to form N-formyl-α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine, de-formylating and diesterifying the N-formyl-α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine in methanol in the presence of an acid to produce α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine dimethyl ester, and treating said diester, for example, in a mixed solvent of water and methanol under neutral or weakly alkaline conditions;
