The present invention relates to a method for preparing tert-butyl N- ((1R,2S,5S)-2-((2-((5-chloropyridin-2-yl)amino)-2-oxoacetyl)amino) -5-(dimethylcarbamoyl)cyclohexyl)carbamate of formula (I), or a salt or solvate thereof,characterized in that it comprises the steps of a) mixing tert-butyl N-((1R,2S,5S)-2-amino-5-(dimethylcarbamoyl) cyclohexyl)carbamate of formula (A) with ethyl 2-((5-chloropyridin-2- yl)amino)-2-oxoacetate of formula (B) in an organic solvent; b) mixing a base with the resulting mixture of step (a); and c) stirring the mixture obtained in step (b). The method substantially facilitates the obtention of the compound of formula (I), leading to a reduction in the viscosity of the reaction medium and improving product yield and/or product purity. Formulae (I), (B), (A).
