Procedure

A solution of N-benzoyl homophenylalanine (4.4 g, 1.66 mmole) in acetic anhydride (60 ml) was heated on the steam bath for 1/2 hr. The solvent was removed in vacuo, the resulting oil was dissolved in CS2 and then added to a suspension of AlCl3 (6.2 g, 4.6 mmoles) in CS2 (60 ml). This mixture was heated at reflux for 1 hr, the solvent was removed in vacuo and ice was added to the residue. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, the ethyl acetate layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to dryness to afford 3.6 g (88%) of product, m.p. 175° C. After recrystallization from toluene it had m.p. 175°-178° C.
