75.0 mL (75.0 mmol) of the solution of ethyl bromozincacetate in cyclopentyl methyl ether obtained in Example 65 was added dropwise to 100 mL of THF at −15˜−5° C. 11.0 g (37.5 mmol) of cinchonine was added at −15˜−5° C., 9.7 mL (120 mmol) of pyridine was added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes. 15.6 g (30.0 mmol) of N-methyl-6-[(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)carbonyl]-2-naphthamide was added at once by assisting by 25 mL of flowing THF at −15˜−5° C., and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hour. 30.0 mL (30.0 mmol) of the solution of ethyl bromozincacetate in cyclopentyl methyl ether obtained in Example 65 was added dropwise at −15˜−5° C. over 40 minutes, and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hour. 420 mL of ethyl acetate and 210 mL of 1N hydrochloric acid were added in this order at −15˜10° C., and the mixture was stirred at 15˜25° C. for 30 minutes. The organic layer was washed with 210 mL of 1N hydrochloric acid, and further 210 mL (×3) of water, 210 mL (×2) of an aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, and 210 mL of water. After washing, the organic layer was concentrated to about 50 mL under heating and reduced pressure (inner temperature 20˜40° C.). 50 mL of ethyl acetate was added, followed by re-concentration procedure two times. 50 mL of ethyl acetate was added to the residue, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, 50 mL of IPE was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. After stirred at 0˜10° C. for 1 hour, crystals were filtered, washed with 16 mL (×2) of IPE, and dried to obtain 17.0 g of ethyl (3S)-3-hydroxy-3-{6-[(methylamino)carbonyl]-2-naphthyl}-3-(1-trityl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)propanoate (yield 93%, enantiomer excess 94.3% ee).
