The solution was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate (250 ml) and washed three times with 5% aqueous NaHCO3, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with (8:2) hexane:ethyl acetate to give FMOC-Ser(O-Bzl)-oxazolidin-4-one as a crystalline product, m.p. 108°-109° C. Fab Mass spec. m/e 430(M+H)+.
