After stirring for 1 hr, iodomethane (6.2 mL, 100 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir for another 2 hr at -78° C. and then quenched with acetic acid. The mixture was concentrated into half volume, diluted with water (200 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (EtOAc). The combined extracts were washed with water, brine and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel, eluted with EtOAc:Hexane (1:2.5). The desired (2S,5R) isomer was eluted first from the column and crystallized in hexanes to give 7.3 g (47%) of product as white crystals. mp=84°-85° C. 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.62 (m, 5H), 7.40 (m, 5H), 4.12 (m, 1H), 3.85 (dd, J=10.3, 4.7 Hz, 1H), 3.72 (dd, J=10.3, 2.8 Hz, 1H), 2.82 (m, 1H), 2.31 (dd, J=12.7, 8.9 Hz, 1H), 1.75 (m, 1H), 1.42 (s, 9H), 1.20 (d, J=7.0 Hz, 3H), 1.02 (s, 9H).
