in ethyl acetate, washed with sodium bicarbonate and
saturated citric acid solution and finally with brine. Dry-
ing over sodium sulfate and concentration in vacuo
yielded the crude product which was subjected to column
chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc:hexane) to afford the
desired peptide in good yield.
30 min and then refluxed. After 12 h another portion of
catalyst (10 mol%) was added to the reaction mixture and
refluxing continued for another 12 h. After this the
reaction was exposed to air and directly subjected to
column chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc:hexane) to
afford the corresponding cyclic product 10 as a mixture
of E and Z isomers in 50–60% yield. Spectral data for
some selected compounds: 4a: Oil; Yield: 67%; FTIR

mobenzylamine hydrochloride (0.5 g, 1.1 equiv., 2.2
mmol), with an excess of NaHCO3) or allylamine (0.2
mL, 0.15 g, 1.3 equiv., 2.6 mmol) in THF (1.0 mL/mmol)
was added Yb(OTf)3 (0.125 g, 0.1 equiv., 0.2 mmol) at
room temperature and the reaction mixture was stirred
for 12 h. After that the reaction mixture was diluted with
hexane and filtered through a celite pad, the filtrate was
concentrated under vacuum, and passed through a filtra-
tion column (silica gel, 2% MeOH in ethyl acetate). This
mixture was subjected to di-tert-butyl dicarbonate
(Boc2O), (0.45 g, 2.06 mmol), catalytic N,N-dimethyl-
aminopyridine in dichloromethane and after aqueous
work-up dried and evaporated to give a crude residue.
Chromatographic purification (silica gel, EtOAc:hexane)
of the crude material gave the desired amines 2 as a
diastereomeric mixture.
