Reaction Steps

(R)-Hydroxyburyl rosylate was prepared in a manner described by Ferreira et al., Tetrahedron, 46, pp. 6311-6318, (1990). To a solution of the tosylate (8.4 g, 34.2 mmol) in acetonitrile (120 ml) was added 6-fluoro-3-(4-piperidinyl)-1,2-benzisoxazole (7.5 g, 34.2 mmol) followed by milled potassium carbonate (7.1 g, 51.3 mmol) at room temperature under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was warmed to reflux for 2 hours and allowed to cool to room temperature. The solids were removed via filtration through a pad of Celite and were washed with EtOAc. The combined filtrates were concentrated to give the crude product. Purification via flash column chromatography (silica gel, 10% MeOH/EtOAc) afforded 6.0 g (60%) of the desired product as an oil which solidified on standing, m.p.: 82°-84° C.
