Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (544 mg, 2.57 mmol) was added to (3R,7aR)-1-oxo-3-trichloromethyl-dihydro-pyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazole-7a-carbaldehyde (obtained as described in J. Org. Chem. 2006, 71(1), 97-102, 500 mg, 1.835 mmol) in DCE (4 mL). The RM was stirred 18 h at rt then taken up in DCM, the organic layer washed with water, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. The crude product was purified using a 20 g RediSep® silica gel column (eluent DCM to 10% MeOH in DCM) to give the title compound as a clear pale yellow oil.
