Procedure

A procedure similar to that described in Preparation 12 was repeated, except that 2.4 g of 8-phenyloctyloxymethyloxirane (prepared as described in Preparation 64), 2.97 g of sodium azide, 20 ml of methyl formate and 80 ml of an 8:1 by volume mixture of methanol and water were used, to give 2.7 g of the title compound having an Rf value of 0.29 (on silica gel thin layer chromatography, using a 1:5 by volume mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane as the developing solvent).
