Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of t-butyl [(1R,3S)-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,2,2-trimethyl cyclopentyl]carbamate (2.0 g, 7.78 mmol) in 30 mL of dichloromethane maintained at 0° C., triethylamine (5.4 mL, 38.9 mmol) was added. To this reaction mixture, methanesulphonyl chloride (1.91 mL, 23.3 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of 30 minutes and the stirring continued for two hours. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and water. The layers were separated and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated and dried to give a light yellow colored crude sticky mass, which was purified by column chromatography to furnish methanesulfonic acid (1S,3R)-3-t-butoxycarbonylamino-2,2,3-trimethyl-cyclopentylmethyl ester (2.01 g) in 76% yield as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 0.85 (s, 3H), 1.05 (s, 3H), 1.32 (s, 3H), 1.43 (s, 9H), 1.49 (m, 1H), 1.85-2.04 (m, 3H), 2.20-2.24 (m, 1H), 3.01 (s, 3H), 4.10-4.15 (dd, J=8 & 9.24 Hz, 1H), 4.24-4.29 (dd, J=6.44 & 9.52 Hz, 1H), 4.47 (s, 1H); m/z (M−55): 280.1; [α]D +36.3° (C., 1.0, methanol).
