Reaktionsschritte

A slurry of lithium t-butoxide (18.0 g, 223.5 mmol, 3.00 eq) in THF (100 ml) is prepared. Isobutyl 4-(1,1-dioxido-4-thiomorpholinyl)-3,5-difluorophenylcarbamate (27.0 g, 74.5 mmol) is dissolved in THF (180 ml) then added to the lithium t-butoxide slurry while maintaining less than 20° C. The mixture is stirred for 15 min then methanol (6.1 ml, 149 mmol, 2.0 eq) is added. (S)-N-[2-(acetyloxy)-3-chloropropyl]acetamide (28.9 g, 149 mmol, 2.0 eq) is dissolved in THF (1100 mL) and added to the reaction mixture over 1 h while maintaining the reaction temperature between 15 and 17° C. The cloudy light yellow/brown solution is stirred at 15 to 16° C. for 16 h. The reaction is then quenched with concentrated acetic acid (8.6 ml, 149 mmol, 2.0 eq) while maintaining less than 20° C. Water (75 ml) is added via addition funnel over 3 min. The phases are separated and the organic phase washed with water (20 ml). The organic phase is concentrated to approximately 200 ml total volume. Isopropanol (300 ml) is added slowly to the stirred orange solution via syringe pump at a rate of 2 ml/min. The yellow slurry is then cooled to approximately 5 to 10° C. and stirred for 30 min. The product is collected by vacuum filtration, washed with cold isopropanol (2×100 ml) and dried in vacuo at 60° C. overnight to give the title compound (22.0 g, 73%): HPLC retention time=3.0 min (99.8 area %); HPLC detection at 254 nm, isocratic elution solvent: 479.5 g buffer (1 l water, 1.57 g ammonium formate, formic acid to pH=3.2) and 409.1 g acetonitrile.
