Reaction Steps

To a solution of (6RS,7SR)-4-benzyl-7-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-6-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,4-oxazepan-3-one (3.11 g) in THF (20 mL) was added 1 M THF solution (13.8 mL) of borane-THF complex at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hr. To the reaction mixture was added methanol, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. To the residue was added 6 N hydrochloric acid (8 mL), and the reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was basified with 8 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title compound (2.22 g).
