Procedure

Glycine (1.5 g, 20 mmol) and heptanoyl chloride (22 mmol) were reacted in the presence of NaOH (40 mmol) in a mixture of water and ether using the method described in Example 5. The crude product was recrystallized from EtOAc (30 ml) to give title compound (2.71 g, 72%), m.p. 98°-100° C.

Workup
