Answer
![(2R)-3-(4-bromophenyl)-2-{[(tert-butoxy)carbonyl]amino}propanoic acid](https://static.chemtradehub.com/structs/795/79561-82-3-2868.webp "(2R)-3-(4-bromophenyl)-2-{[(tert-butoxy)carbonyl]amino}propanoic acid")
(2R)-3-(4-bromophenyl)-2-{[(tert-butoxy)carbonyl]amino}propanoic acid is usually synthesized via the condensation of 4-bromophenylacetic acid with tert-butoxycarbonyl chloride in the presence of a base such as diisopropylethylamine. The reaction is typically conducted in an organic solvent like dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran, with high selectivity and yields up to 90%. The product is then purified using column chromatography or recrystallization.
