Reaktionsschritte

45.1 ml of a 1N n-butyllithium solution (in hexane) are added dropwise at -75° C. to a mixture of 12 g of 4-methoxy-3-(3-methoxypropyloxy)-bromobenzene and 9.7 ml of 4-methylmorpholine in 75 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction mixture is stirred for a further 20 minutes at -75° C. and then, at from -75° C. to -60° C., a suspension of magnesium bromide in tetrahydrofuran (freshly prepared from 1.6 g of magnesium powder and 5.7 ml of 1,2-dibromoethane in 150 ml of tetrahydrofuran) is added. The reaction mixture is stirred for a further 30 minutes and then, at -75° C., a solution of 8.84 g of 3(S)-isopropyl-5(S)-[1(S)-azido-3(S)-isopropyl-4-oxobutyl]-tetrahydrofuran-2-one in 75 ml of tetrahydrofuran is added. The reaction mixture is then stirred for 15 minutes at -75° C. and subsequently 70 ml of saturated ammonium chloride solution are added. The reaction mixture is then poured into 180 ml of saturated sodium chloride solution:water (1:1) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×360 ml). The organic phases are dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated by evaporation. The title compound is obtained by purifying the residue by FC (240 g of silica gel, ethyl acetate/hexane=1:2): Rf (ethyl acetate/hexane =1:2)=0.16; HPLC Rt =18.53 and 19.49 minutes (diastereoisomeric mixture).
