Procedure
To a cooled (−78° C.) solution of (R)-3-((E)-8-methylnon-6-enoyl)-4-benzyloxazolidin-2-one (2.000 g, 6.071 mmol) in 40 mL of THF, was added LiHMDS (9.1 mL, 9.1 mmol, 1.0 M in THF). The resulting mixture was stirred at −78° C. under N2 for 1 h and then a solution of 3,5-dimethyl-4-fluorobenzyl bromide (1.450 g, 6.678 mmol) in 10 mL of THF was added. After being stirred at −78° C. for 1 h the reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature for 2 h, and then quenched with 80 mL of NH4Cl solution and extracted with dichloromethane (60 mL×3). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was isolated by Flash column chromatography (silica gel column) eluting with 0-100% dichloromethane/hexanes to give the title compound as colorless oil (1.925 g, 68% yield). GC-MS: tR=8.8 min; m/z 465 (M+).
