Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of (R)-1-phenyl-ethanol (60.6 g, 0.496 mol), pyridine (42.5 mL, 0.526 mol) and 2-methyl-tetrahydrofuran (600 mL) was cooled to 0° C. and p-nitrophenyl chloroformate (100 g, 0.496 mol) was added over 15 min keeping the internal temperature below 5° C. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2 h. To the reaction mixture was added 1.0 M HCl in water (300 mL). Layers were separated. The organic layer was washed with 1N HCl (300 mL) and brine (300 mL), filtered, concentrated to dryness by rotary evaporation, and dried under vacuum to give the title compound (140 g) as a clear yellow oil.
