To a solution of dimethyl D-aspartate (18 g, 111.7 mmol) in MeOH (500 mL) was added 2-flfluoronitrobenzene (17.33 g, 122.86 mmol) and NaHCO3 (9.38 g, 111.7 mmol). The reaction mixture was reflfluxed under N2 for approximately 2 days. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was azeotropically dried with benzene (2 × 100 mL). The crude material was then redissolved in MeOH (200 mL), cooled to 0 ºC, and the pH of the reaction mixture was adjusted to 4 with HCl(g). The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in EtOAc and washed with a saturated NaHCO3/10% Na2CO3 solution (9:1, 2 × 500 mL) and brine (300 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, fifiltered, and concentrated to give dimethyl (2R)-2-(2-nitrophenylamino)butanedioate (25.54 g, 81%).
