Procedure
A solution of methyl (1S,5R)-6-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-3-carboxylate (8 g, 56.3 mmol) in MTBE (100 ml) was hydrogenated at 3 atm on Parr shaker for 12 hrs. Filtered through celite evaporated followed by chromatagraphy on a 50 g silica gel Biotage Snap cartridge with 10-50% 6:3:1 Hexane-MTBE-MeCN/Hexane to give title compound. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.63-1.74 (m, 3H), δ 1.78 (s, br, 1H), δ 1.82-2.07 (m, 4H), δ 2.11-2.19 (m, 1H), δ 3.09 (m, 1H), δ 3.70 (s, 3H), δ 4.48 (m, 1H)
