Reaction Steps

5.3 ml of 1N sodium hydroxide was added to 25 ml of a suspension of 2.32 g of (3RS,6SR)-3-benzyl-1-benzyloxy-3-ethoxycarbonyl-6-isobutylpiperazine-2,5-dione in ethanol. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 3 with 1N hydrochloric acid. Thereto were added 80 ml of ethyl acetate and 80 ml of water to conduct distribution. The organic layer was dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then subjected to vacuum distillation to remove the solvent at room temperature to obtain 2.17 g of (3RS,6SR)-3-benzyl-1-benzyloxy-3-carboxy-6-isobutylpiperazine-2,5-dione as a light yellow solid.
