Procedure: A solution of 2-aminoisobutyric acid (3.3 g, 32 mmol) in absolute ethanol (100 mL) was cooled to −78° C. and HCl(g) bubbled in for 10 minutes. The flask was sealed with a septum and stirred at ambient temperature. After 14 hours the mixture was concentrated in vacuo to afford 5.3 g (99% yield) of ethyl 2-aminoisobutyrate as a white solid; NMR (CDCl3) 8.9 (br s, 3), 4.1 (q, 2), 1.7 (s, 6), 1.3 (t, 3) ppm. HCl(g) bubbled in for 10 minutes The flask was sealed with a septum After 14 hours the mixture was concentrated in vacuo

Procedure: 2-Amino-2-methyl-propionic acid (1.0 g, 9.69 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (15 ml) and cooled to 0° C. Thionyl chloride (1.7 g, 14.53 mmol, 1.5 eq) was added to the reaction mixture, which was then heated to reflux overnight. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was concentrated and dried to give 2-amino-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (0.8 g, 63%). The crude compound was used in the next stage without purification. was then heated to reflux overnight The solvent was evaporated the residue was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate The organic layer was concentrated dried
