Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

27 mL of acetic acid, 6.6 mL of water and 1.06 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid were added to 3.32 g of (2R,3R,4S)-3-((4-chlorobenzyl)oxy)-2-(((4-chlorobenzyl)oxy)methyl)-4-fluoro-5-methoxyoxolane, and the obtained mixture was then stirred at 70° C. for 2 hours. Thereafter, 4.5 mL of water and 0.53 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid were added to the reaction mixture, and the obtained mixture was then stirred at 70° C. for 5 hours. Thereafter, ethyl acetate and hexane were added to the reaction mixture, and the thus obtained mixture was successively washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution, and was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After that, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=90/10 to 30/70), so as to obtain 2.92 g of (3S,4R,5R)-4-((4-chlorobenzyl)oxy)-5-(((4-chlorobenzyl)oxy)methyl)-3-fluorooxolan-2-ol in the form of a colorless oily product.
