Procedure

To a solution of 4.6 g of 4-(4-bromophenyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)butanol in 300 ml of methyl acetate was added 33.1 g of the above PPL preparation. The mixture was stirred while the progress of the reaction was monitored by HPLC method A. When the consumption of diol was complete, the mixture was immediately filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to an oil under vacuum. The oil was purified by flash chromatography on 200 g of silica with 3:1 ethyl acetate:hexane to obtain 4.82 g of the desired product as an oil. The 1-naphthyl carbamate derivative of a small portion of the product was prepared and analyzed by HPLC method B to determine that the product was 99% R and 1% S; the R isomer eluted at 9.4 minutes, and the S isomer at 12.6 minutes.
