Procedure

To a stirred suspension of potassium tert-butoxide in THF (300 mL) at −78° C. was added a solution of di-tert-butyl [1-(3,5-difluorophenyl)ethyl]imidodicarbonate from Step A (22.0 g, 61.6 mmol) in THF (200 mL), dropwise, over 45 min. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirring was continued for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to −78° C. and quenched with 1 N aqueous HCl (300 mL), warmed to 0° C., and poured into Et2O (300 mL). The organic layer was extracted and the aqueous layer was extracted further with Et2O (300 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with hexane:EtOAc-95:5 to 80:20, to give the title compound. MS: m/z=421 (M+Na+CH3CN).
