Procedure
To a 12 L 3-neck flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer and nitrogen inlet was charged 400 g (2.6 mol) of β-alanine, 2250 L of dichloromethane and 2.3 L of ethanol. Agitation was begun and 1.09 L (7.8 mol, 3 eq) of triethyl amine and 364 mL (2.6 mol, 1 eq) of 4-heptanone were added. The mixture was cooled to <10° C. and 1.65 Kg (7.8 mol, 3 eq) of sodium triacetoxy borohydride. Mixture kept <15° C. and stirred for 24 hrs.
