Procedure
To a chilled (−78° C.) solution of 2-methyl-propane-2-sulfinic acid [1-(2-bromo-pyridin-4-yl)-eth-(E)-ylidene]-amide (9.3 g, 31 mmol) in THF (280 mL) was added a 1 M solution of L-Selectride in THF (61.3 ml, 61.3 mmol) dropwise. After 2.5 hours, the chilled mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl (100 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2×400 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with a gradient of 50-90% EtOAc in hexanes to afford 2-methyl-propane-2-sulfinic acid [(S)-1-(2-bromo-pyridin-4-yl)-ethyl]amide as a light yellow oil which contained 5% of the opposite diastereomer.
