Reaktionsschritte

m-Chloro-perbenzoic acid (1.05 g, 57-86% pure) was added to a solution of 2-methyl-2,3,4,7-tetrahydro-azepine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (0.83 g, 3.34 mmol) in CH2Cl2 at 0 degrees C. The reaction mixture was stirred for half an hour, then was warmed to RT. Additional m-chloro-perbenzoic acid (0.3 g, 57-86% pure) was added and the reaction was stirred 2 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo by rotary evaporation, then 80 ml of 9:1 hexanes/EtOAc was added and the reaction mixture was filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo by rotary evaporation, then was chromatographed (silica gel, 20% EtOAc:hexanes) to give racemic (1S,4R,7S)-4-methyl-8-oxa-3-aza-bicyclo[5.1.0]octane-3-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (0.44 g, 50%) and the title compound as a racemic mixture of the title compound (0.15 g, 17% yield): 1H NMR: 7.42-7.22 (m, 5H), 5.13 (2H, s), 4.50-4.15 (m, 2H), 3.27 (1H, d), 3.12-2.95 (1H, m), 2.15-1.70 (m, 2H), 1.47 (m, 2H), 1.12 (3H, d); Liquid Chromatgraphy/Electrospray mass spec: M+H+=262.0.
