Procedure

A solution of (5R)-methanesulfonic acid 3-(3-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)-2-oxo-oxazolidin-5-ylmethyl ester (5, 290.0 g, 698.8 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (700 mL) was treated with sodium azide (NaN3, 90.84 g, 1.4 mol, 2.0 equiv) at 25° C., and the resulting mixture was subsequently warmed up to 70-75° C. for 6 h. When TLC and HPLC/MS showed that the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature before being treated with H2O (1500 mL) and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The solids were then collected by filtration, washed with H2O (2×500 mL), and dried in vacuo at 40° C. for 24 h to afford the crude, desired (5R)-5-azidomethyl-3-(3-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)-oxazolidin-2-one (1023, 248.0 g, 252.97 g theoretical, 98%) as white powders, which was found to be essentially pure and was directly used in the subsequent reactions without further purifications. For 1023: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 3.67-3.81 (m, 3H), 4.14 (t, 1H, J=5.4 Hz), 4.88-4.94 (m, 1H), 7.22 (dd, 1H, J=2.4, 8.7 Hz), 7.56 (dd, 1H, J=2.4, 8.7 Hz), 7.84 (dd, 1H, J=7.5, 8.7 Hz); LCMS C10H8FIN4O2, LCMS (EI) m/e 363 (M++H).
