benzyl N-[3-hydroxy-2-[(2-methylpropan-2-yl)oxycarbonylamino]propyl]carbamate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Benzyl tert-butyl (3-hydroxypropane-1,2-diyl)biscarbamate (400 mg, 1.23 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (12.3 mL) and put under a hydrogen atmosphere with 3 cycles of evacuation and hydrogen balloon flushing. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature under a hydrogen atmosphere for 2 hours, and then filtered through CELITE. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford tert-butyl 1-amino-3-hydroxypropan-2-ylcarbamate. MS ESI calcd. for C8H19N2O3 [M+H]+ 191. found 191. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 5.25 (s, 1H), 3.87 (d, J=10.0 Hz, 1H), 3.71 (d, J=10.5 Hz, 1H), 3.59-3.63 (m, 1H), 3.08 (d, J=10.6 Hz, 1H), 2.90 (d, J=10.1 Hz, 1H), 1.84 (s, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H). flushing filtered through CELITE The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a mixture of benzyl tert-butyl (3-hydroxypropane-1,2-diyl)biscarbamate (60.0 g, 185 mmol) in DCM (1000 mL) was added methanesulfonylchloride (23 g, 200 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 12 hours, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and purified directly by chromatography on silica gel to give 3-{[(benzyloxy)carbonyl]amino}-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]propyl methanesulfonate. MS ESI calc'd. for C17H27N2O7S [M+H]+ 403. found 403. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 7.34-7.32 (m, 5), 5.17-5.07 (m, 2H), 4.18-4.16 (m, 2H), 4.09-3.91 (m, 1H), 3.29-3.28 (m, 2H), 3.05 (s, 3H), 1.42 (s, 9H). the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure purified directly by chromatography on silica gel

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a solution of methyl 3-{[(benzyloxy)carbonyl]amino}-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)alaninate (80 g, 230 mmol) in THF (800 mL) was added lithium borohydride (20 g, 920 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 1 hour, the reaction mixture was diluted with water and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give benzyl tert-butyl (3-hydroxypropane-1,2-diyl)biscarbamate. MS ESI calc'd. for C16H25N2O5 [M+H]+ 325. found 325. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.38-7.35 (m, 5H), 5.11 (s, 2H), 4.70 (s, 1H), 4.13-4.11 (m, 1H), 3.66-3.28 (m, 4H), 2.04 (s, 2H), 1.43 (s, 9H). filtered The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure
