Procedure
To a solution of triphenylphosphine (3 eq) in dry THF under Argon was added diethylazodicarboxylate (3 eq) dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes before adding a solution of 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (3 eq in dry THF) dropwise. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour before adding (R)-methyl 3-hydroxy-2-(tritylamino)propanoate (LXXXIX) in dry THF in one portion. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature ovenight. The mixture was concentrated to dryness, treated with hexane and filtered. The residue was concentrated to dryness and purified by silica flash chromatography (EtOAc/hexane=1:5). Pure (R)-methyl 3-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)-2-(tritylamino)propanoate (XC) was obtained as an off-white solid (50% yield).
