반응 단계

At 0° C., a solution of 25.0 g (215 mmol) of tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-ylmethanol (racemate) in 500 ml of THF was slowly added dropwise to a suspension of 9.47 g (237 mmol, 60% in mineral oil) of sodium hydride in 500 ml of THF, and after the addition had ended, the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for another 30 min 25.7 ml (215 mmol) of benzyl bromide were then added, and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for another 30 min and at room temperature for another 1 h. The reaction was terminated by addition of 200 ml of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution, and the phases were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted twice with 200 ml of methyl tert-butyl ether. The combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulphate and filtered, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (ethyl acetate/cyclohexane gradient, 340 g silica cartridge, flow rate 100 ml/min), giving the title compound. Yield: 41.9 g (94% of theory)
