Reaction Steps

The title compound was synthesized as described for compound 10 using (2R,3R,4R)-3,4-dibenzyloxy-2-benzyloxymethylpyrrolidine (Compound 1) (0.5 g, 1.2 mmol), methanol (30 ml), glyceraldehyde (0.134 g, 1.5 mmol) and sodium cyanoborohydride (0.094 g, 1.5 mmol). Purification of the crude product on silica gel (Eluent: Ethyl acetate) afforded (2R,3R,4R)-3,4-dibenzyloxy-2-benzyloxymethyl-1-(2,3-dihydroxyprop-1-yl)pyrrolidine (0.424 g, yield: 72%) as an oil.
