Reaction Steps

((1R,3R)-1-Isocyanatomethyl-3-methyl-cyclopentyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (7.82 g, 37 mmol) was refluxed in methanol (30 mL) and toluene (80 mL) for 17 hours and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by chromatography (silica gel, heptane to heptane:ether 8:2) to give 2.60 g (29%) of [(1R,3R)-1-(methoxycarbonylamino-methyl)-3-methyl-cyclopentyl]-acetic acid methyl ester;
