The reaction mixture was concentrated and adjusted to pH=4 using 1N HCl. A white solid precipitated from the solution and was collected by filteration. The filter cake was washed with water to yield 1.2 g of the crude product as a white solid. Crystallization from hexane/EtOAc gave 1.0 g (50%) of 1-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-(difluoromethyl)cyclopropanecarboxylic acid as a white solid. This intermediate was isolated as a single diastereoisomer wherein the CF2H substituent is syn to the carboxyl group.
