Procedure
A solution of (2,3-dihydro-benzo[1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester (3.0 g, 10.5 mmol, prepared according to procedure C in THF (60 mL) was cooled to −78° C. before the drop wise addition of n-BuLi (5.1 mL of a 2.5 M solution in hex, 1.2 eq). The mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 1 h and then warmed to −15° C. At this temperature (R)-glycidyl butyrate (1.98 g, 1.2 eq) was added drop wise. The mixture was stirred at rt overnight. Cs2CO3 (tip of a spatula) was added and the mixture heated at 40° C. until complete conversion. The mixture was diluted with EA and washed with sat. NH4Cl solution and water. The org. layer was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. CC (hex/EA 2:1 to 1:1) gave the desired intermediate as beige solid (1.09 g, 41%).
