Reaction Steps

A procedure similar to that described in Preparation 5(a) was repeated, except that 1.64 g of ethyl 3-(5-phenoxymethyl-2-oxooxazolidin-3-yl)propionate (prepared as described in Preparation 113), 15 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, 244 mg of lithium borohydride and 179 mg of anhydrous methanol were used, to give 1.41 g of the title compound having an Rf value of 0.28 (on silica gel thin layer chromatography, using ethyl acetate as the developing solvent).
