Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred suspension of CuBr.SMe2 (1.37 g, 2.2 eq, 6.66 mmol) in Et2O (100 mL) under an argon atmosphere at −78° C., was added tert-butyllithium (1.5 M in pentane, 8.0 mL, 4 eq, 12.0 mmol) dropwise and the solution allowed to warm to room temperature. The mixture was recooled to −55° C., to which was added a solution of (R)-2-(trityl-amino)-butyraldehyde (1 g, 1 eq, 3.03 mmol) in Et2O (25 mL) dropwise with stirring, and stirred at this temperature for 3 h. 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 gradient column chromatography, eluted with hexane:ether (100:0→90:10) to afford the title compound as a light yellow oil. Yield: 0.57 g (49%). (55% de 3S,4R: 45% de 3R,4R). 1H-NMR (d6-DMSO, 250 MHz): δ 0.36 & 0.86 (2×t, 3H, J=7.42 Hz, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 0.57 & 0.71 (2×s, 9H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 1.38-1.52 (m, 2H, —NHCH (CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 1.99 (m, 1H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 2.27 (m, 1H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 2.95 (m, 1H, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 4.22 & 4.77 (2×d, 1H, J=4.42 5.21 Hz, —NHCH(CH2CH3)CH(C(CH3)3)OH), 7.14-7.52 (m, 15H, 3×Ph).
