Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (4R)-4-{(1R,2R)-3-[(4R)-4-benzyl-2-oxo-1,3-oxazolidin-3-yl]-1-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-oxopropyl}-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidine-3-carboxylate (2.0 g, 4.3 mmol) in DCM (40 mL) at −40° C., 2,6-lutidine (0.90 mL, 7.8 mmol) was added, followed by tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (1.4 mL, 6.0 mmol). The mixture was stirred at −40° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc, washed with a saturated aq. NaHCO3 and brine, then dried over MgSO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (0-20% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford the sub-title compound (2.2 g, 88%). LCMS calc. for C30H49N2O7Si (M+H)+: m/z=577.3. found 577.3.
