Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 9.5 g 1-oxa-3,8-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one and 75 ml water, at 0°, is added 6.3 g sodium bicarbonate and 10.9 g benzyl chloroformate. The mixture is stirred 18 hours at 0°, acidified with 10 N hydrochloric acid and stirred four hours at room temperature. The mixture is extracted with three 50 ml portions of dichloromethane. Removal of solvent affords 14.4 g 8-carbobenzyloxy-1-oxa-3,8-diazaspiro[4.5]decan-2-one, mp 126°-128°.
