Reaction Steps

(1S,2S)-[2-(3,5-Difluorophenyl)-1-oxiranylethyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (VI, 113 mg) and 1-((3aS,8aR)-2,2-Dimethyl-8,8a-dihydro-3aH-indeno[1,2-d]oxazol-3-yl)-butan-1-one (VII, 94 mg) were combined in dry THF (3 mL), and cooled to −78° C. To this solution was added BuLi (2.5 M in hexanes, 0.32 mL) over 5 min., whereupon the solution was allowed to warm to 0° C. for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture was partitioned between 0.5 N HCl (4 mL) and 1:1 EtOAc/hexanes (2×4 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (20–30% EtOAc/hexanes) to give an oil: MH+559.1.
