4-Methylmorpholine → benzyloxycarbonyl-L-histidyl-glycine amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Na -t-butyloxycarbonyl-Nim -benzyloxycarbonyl-L-histidine was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and neutralized with one equivalent of N-methylmorpholine. It was then coupled with glycinamide hydrochloride using isobutyl chloroformate and N-methylmorpholine. After two hours at -20° C. and an additional hour at ambient temperature, the reaction was quenched with 2N aqueous potassium bicarbonate. This product was extracted into ethyl acetate, washed with 1M aqueous citric acid, and saturated sodium bicarbonate. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Filtration and evaporation gave Na -t-butyloxycarbonyl-Nim -benzyloxycarbonyl-L-histidyl-glycine amide.
