To a solution of 100 mg of rac-3-hexyl -4-(2-hydroxy-tridecyl)-2-oxetanone(2R,3S,4S:2S,3R,4R) or of 100 mg of (3S,4S)-3-hexyl-4-[(R)-2-hydroxytridecyl]-2-oxetanone, 74 mg of triphenylphosphine and 45 mg of N-formyl-L-leucine in 2 ml of THF are added dropwise while stirring 44.3 μl of diethyl azodicarboxylate. After stirring overnight the organic phase is evaporated in vacuo and the residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel with toluene-ethyl acetate (9:1). There are obtained 20 or 37 mg of N-formyl-L-leucine (S)-1-[[(2S,3S)-3-hexyl-4-oxo-2-oxetanyl]methyl]dodecyl ester, [α]D20 =-33° C. (c=0.36, CHCL3).
