Procedure
n-BuLi in hexane (2.5M, 24.06 mmol, 9.62 mL) was slowly added to a solution of N,N-dimethylprop-2-yn-1-amine (24.06 mmol, 2.59 mL, 2 g) in dry THF (10 mL) at −78° C. The mixture was stirred for 1 h at −78° C., then crushed CO2 (241 mmol, 10.59 g) was added in one portion and the reaction mixture was stirred for an additional 10 min. The resulting solution was poured into water and washed with ethyl acetate. The aqueous layer was evaporated in vacuo to give the crude amino acid. This was dissolved in methanol, and the insoluble salts were removed via filtration. The filtrate was evaporated to give 3.25 g of 4-(dimethylamino)but-2-ynoic acid (106%).
