Reaction Steps

(R)-2-acetoxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid 11.1.C (1170 mg, 5619 μmol) was azeotroped and dissolved in DCM under nitrogen. Pyridine (454 μl, 5619 μmol) was added followed by cyanuric fluoride (1423 μl, 16858 μmol) at −20° C. After 1 h, reaction was worked up with ice and DCM to afford 1.04 g (88%) crude (R)-1-fluoro-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl acetate 11.1.D. The crude was directly used for next step.
