반응 단계

Add isobutylchloroformate (0.41 mL, 3.16 mmol) and N-methylmorpholine (0.35 mL, 3.16 mmol) to a solution of (+/−)-trans-cyclopropane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid monoethyl ester (0.50 g, 3.161 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (21 mL) at −50° C. Stir for 5 minutes and then filter into a slurry of sodium borohydride (0.084 g, 2.21 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (9 mL) and cool to −50° C. Warm to room temperature over night and then add 9 mL of water. Remove tetrahydrofuran under reduced pressure and extract aqueous layer with diethyl ether (3×20 mL). Wash combined organic layers with saturated aqueous sodium chloride and dry over magnesium sulfate. Concentrate under reduced pressure and subject residue to silica gel chromatography eluting with 25-65% ethyl acetate in hexanes to provide the desired compound (0.224 g, 49.1%).
