Procedure
(2S,3R)-3-Benzyl-2-oxiranecarboxylic cyclopropylamide (50 mg) and isobutyronitrile (2 ml) were mixed, and the mixture was cooled to 5° C. Boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex (2.5 equivalents) was gradually added, and the mixture was stirred at 5 to 20° C. for 2 hours. A mixture solution of ethyl acetate (10 ml) and saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate (5 ml) was kept cooled at 5° C., and the reaction mixture was gradually added thereinto dropwise. The aqueous layer was removed, and then the solvent was evaporated away under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound as a brown solid (63 mg, yield: 96%).
