Reaction Steps

(3S,8aS)-Hexahydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]oxazin-3-ylmethyl acetate (2.36 g, 11.9 mmol) was treated with sodium methoxide (25 wt % solution in methanol; 2.7 mL) for 0.5 h. The mixture was cooled in an ice bath and a solution of 4M HCl in 1,4-dioxane (3 mL, 12.0 mmol) was added slowly. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes and then was concentrated in vacuo to afford a suspension which was diluted with dichloromethane, filtered and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to afford (3S,8aS)-hexahydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]oxazin-3-ylmethanol as a brown oil (1.93 g, >100% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 4.05 (dd, 1H), 3.73-3.65 (m, 2H), 3.62-3.56 (m, 1H), 3.39-3.34 (m, 1H), 3.10 (dt, 1H), 3.00-2.95 (m, 1H), 2.24-1.98 (m, 4H), 1.97-1.70 (m, 3H), 1.44-1.28 (m, 1H); MS (EI) for C8H15NO2: 158 (MH+).
