Procedure

To ortho-fluoronitrobenzene (18) (6.5 g, 46 mmol) in ethanol (200 mL) and water (200 mL) under nitrogen was added L-phenylalanine (5.10 g, 31 mmol) and sodium bicarbonate (5.19 g, 62 mmol) and the suspension heated at reflux for 48 h. The red solution was coled, extracted with ether (2×50 mL—to remove any unreacted ortho-fluoronitrobenzene and concentrated to ½ volume. Pd/C (20%, 0.5 g) was added and a hydrogen balloon was attached. After stirring overnight the mixture was filtered, acidifed with 1N HCl to pH 4 and the solid that formed was collected. This was dried under high vacuum to afford the title compound (4.66 g, 53%) of sufficient purity (19) to use directly.
