An alternate enantiospecific synthesis of methyl (S)-7-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2, 3, 4, 5- tetrahydro-4-methyl-3-oxo-1H-1, 4-benzodiazepine-2-acetate (5) is reported. The key step, which involves an intermolecular displacement of the activated aryl fluoride (9) by L-aspartic acid β-methyl ester, proceeds without racemization.
