Procedure

To a stirred solution of (2RS,3RS)—N-[(1S)-2-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl]-N-methyl-3-phenyloxirane-2-carboxamide (30a) (1.7 g, 5.72 mmol) in anhydrous toluene (120 mL) was added MgI2 (1.6 g, 5.72 mmol, 98% purity) and the mixture vigorously stirred at RT for 32 h. The mixture was treated with saturated ammonium chloride (50 mL) and water (50 mL) and stirred for 30 min. The separated organic layer was washed consecutively with saturated ammonium chloride and brine, dried, filtered and evaporated to an orange oil (1.6 g). Isocratic flash column chromatography (2:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate) separated the title compound (33b) (400 mg, 24%) as a white solid from the (3S,6S,7R) diastereomer (1.0 g, 59%). There was a significant NOE observed between proton 3 and proton 7. HPLC: 1.78 min (Method A).
