Racemic 5-benzyl-2-2,3-trimethylimidazolidin-4-one dichloroacetic acid (109 mg, 0.314 mmol) and N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (593 mg, 1.88 mmol) were dissolved in 10% i-PrOH-THF (3.75 mL). The reaction mixture was cooled to −20° C., and the compound from Step 7 (900 mg, 1.57 mmol) in 1.25 mL of 10% i-PrOH-THF was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at −20° C. for 24 hours, 2 volumes of ether were added, and the resulting mixture was vigorously stirred, filtered through Davisil® silica (W.R. Grace & Co.-Conn.), and eluted with ether. 5 mL of methyl sulfide was added to the eluted reaction mixture. The reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with EtOAc (2×). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound which was used directly at Step 9. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ7.66-7.52 (m, 5H), 7.51-7.25 (m, 10H), 5.08 (s, 2H), 4.90-4.83 (m, 1H), 3.70-3.55 (m, 1H), 3.53-3.36 (m, 2H), 3.17-2.99 (m, 2H), 1.63-1.32 (m, 7H), 0.96 (s, 9H), 0.88-0.72 (m 6H), aldehyde signal missing due to hydrate form.
