Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (889 mg, 4.19 mmol) was added to a mixture of (3R,7aR)-7a-[(3-fluoro-benzylamino)-methyl]-3-trichloromethyl-tetrahydro-pyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazol-1-one (Stage K.2, 400 mg, 1.048 mmol), formaldehyde (37% in H2O, 0.102 mL, 1.36 mmol) and acetic acid (0.150 mL, 2.62 mmol) in DCE (4 mL) under an argon atm. After 2 h stirring at rt the RM was partitioned between DCM and water. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to give the title compound as a pale brown oil which was used without further purification.
