Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred suspension of CuBr.SMe2 (2.74 g, 2.2 eq, 13.33 mmol) in ether (100 mL) under an argon atmosphere at −70° C., was added methyl lithium (1.6 M in ether, 15.13 mL, 4.0 eq, 24.21 mmol) dropwise and the solution allowed to warm to room temperature. The mixture was recooled to −70° C., to which was added a solution of (S)-2-(trityl-amino)-butyraldehyde (2 g, 1 eq, 6.05 mmol) in Et2O (25 mL) dropwise with stirring. The reaction mixture was stirred at this temperature for 2 h and then at −55° C. for 4 h, when TLC (hexane:Et2O; 80:20) indicated that the reaction had gone to completion. To the reaction mixture was added a saturated aqueous solution of NH4Cl (100 mL) and allowed to warm to room temperature over 16 h. The reaction mixture was extracted with Et2O (2×200 mL), and the combined organic phase washed with brine (50 mL), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography, eluted with hexane:Et2O (80:20) to afford the title compound as a light yellow oil. Yield: 1.37 g (66%). (80% de 2R,3S: 20% de 2S,3S). 1H-NMR (d6-DMSO, 250 MHz): δ0.0.47 & 0.55 (2×t, J=7.50 & 7.26 Hz —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(CH3)OH), 0.99-1.12 (m, 5H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(CH3)OH), 2.01 (m, 1H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(CH3)OH), 3.22-3.43 (m, 1H, —NHCH(CH2CH3) CH(CH3)OH), 4.41 (d, 1H, J=3.31 Hz, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(CH3)OH), 7.14-7.56 (m, 15H, 3×Ph).
