Procedure

(R)-2-phenylglycinol (3.00 g, 21.9 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) and ethyl pyruvate (2.67 mL, 24.1 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) were refluxed in trifluoroethanol (50 mL) over activated 4 molecular sieves (8.00 g) for 24 hours. Filtration through a short pad of CELITE® diatomaceous earth and removal of solvent from the filtrate in vacuo generated the crude product which was purified by flash column chromatography on silica, eluting with petrol and diethyl ether (7:3) to furnish the title compound as a white solid (1.70 g, 41%); mp 71.0-72.0° C.
