Procedure

To 2-(6-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ylsulfanyl)-2-methylpropionic acid tert-butyl ester (4.7 g; 14.6 mmol), dissolved in CH2Cl2 (25 mL), is added DIEA (3.3 mL; 18.9 mmol) and the reaction mixture is cooled to 0° C. Acetyl chloride (1.25 mL; 17.5 mmol) is added dropwise at a rate to maintain the temperature between 0-5° C. The reaction was allowed to warm to RT and stirred for 16 h. The reaction was diluted with CH2Cl2, washed with H2O, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude oil was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2) eluting with a hexanes-EtOAc gradient to afford 1.7 g (32%) of 2-(6-acetylamino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ylsulfanyl)-2-methylpropionic acid tert-butyl ester as a tan solid.
