Reaction Steps

Triisopropoxyaluminum (200 mg, 0.98 mmol) was diluted with 6 ml of toluene. Thereto was added 285 mg (0.96 mmol) of [1(S)-benzyl-2-oxo-3-chloropropyl]carbamic acid t-butyl ester, and the mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 16 hours. After hydrolysis with 1N hydrochloric acid, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The solution obtained was analyzed quantitatively by HPLC under the same conditions as used in Example 1 and the yields and selectivity were calculated.
