Reaktionsschritte

To benzenesulfonic acid sodium salt (10.0 g, 0.061 mol), 25% HCl was added dropwise with stirring until the solid dissolved. The reaction mixture was extracted (100 mL each, 3 times) with EtOAc, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give benzenesulfonic acid (7.8 g, 90%). To a 100 mL round bottom with a magnetic stir bar, benzenesulfonic acid (4.61 g, 0.0324 mol), CaCl2(3.6 g, 0.0324 mol) and dry dichloromethane (30 mL) were added. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and (2S) (5RS)-2-(4-fluorophenoxymethyl)-5-hydroxy-tetrahydrofuran (4.6 g, 0.0216 mol) in dry CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 3 h and monitored by TLC (EtOAc-light petroleum ether 1:4, Rf=0.25). The reaction mixture was filtered through celite and washed with CH2Cl2 (3 times). The combined organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous Na2CO3, water brine and dried over Na2SO4. Solvent was removed under reduced pressure to afford the crude (2S) (5RS)-5-benzenesulfonyl-2-(4-fluorophenoxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran 14 which was crystallized from chloroform-hexane to give pure white solid, yield 6.8 g (93%), m.p. 102° C.-104° C. 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.90-3.0 (m, 4 H), 3.85-5.0 (m, 4 H), 6.70-7.05 (m, 4 H), 7.45-7.72 (m, 3 H), 7.77-8.0 (m, 2 H).
