Participants

Reaction Steps

21 g (47.3 mmol) of methyl (2S,3R)-3-{3′-[(tert-butoxycarbonylmethylamino)methyl]biphenyl-4-yl}-2-ethoxy-3-hydroxypropionate, 8.76 ml (54.9 mmol) of triethylsilane in 300 ml of trifluoroacetic acid are introduced into a round-bottomed flask and under a nitrogen stream. The reaction medium is stirred for 4 hours at room temperature. Ethyl acetate is then added and the mixture is neutralized with sodium hydroxide. The organic phase is washed with a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated off. 19.6 g (100%) of the expected crude product are obtained.
