Hydrochloric Acid → L-valine p-nitrobenzyl ester hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-L-valine p-nitrobenzyl ester (3.07 g, 8.71 mmol) (obtained as described in Reference Example 46(1)) in 1,4-dioxane (31 ml) was added a solution of 4N hydrogen chloride in 1,4-dioxane (31 ml) in an ice bath, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After checking the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, to the obtained residue was added ethyl acetate, and the mixture was filtered. The resulting residue was washed with ethyl acetate and dried to give L-valine p-nitrobenzyl ester hydrochloride (2.21 g, yield 88%).
