Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of [(8S)-2-methyl-7,8-dihydro[1,4]dioxino[2,3-g][1,3]benzoxazol-8-yl]methanol (1.80 g, 8.14 mmole) in methylene chloride (100 mL) was added p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (3.90 g, 20.4 mmole). The mixture was cooled in an ice bath and a solution of diisopropylethylamine (3.55 mL, 20.4 mmole) in methylene chloride (20 mL) was then added dropwise, followed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.65 g, 5.30 mmole). The solution was allowed to warm to room temperature and was stirred under nitrogen overnight. The reaction was diluted to 500 mL in volume with methylene chloride, then washed with aqueous 2 N HCl (200 mL), with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (200 mL), and with brine (150 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated in vacuum to a yellow oil. The crude oil was column chromatographed on silica gel using methylene chloride to remove impurities and 3% methanol/methylene chloride to elute the (R)-enantiomer of the title compound, which becomes a white solid under vacuum (2.56 g, 84%), m.p. 123° C. MS (ESI) m/z 376 (M+H)+.
