Procedure
2.1 ml of allyl bromide were added to a solution of 4.52 g of methyl 3(R)-carboxy-2(S)-hydroxy-5-methylhexanoate and 7.9 g of caesium carbonate in 30 ml of dimethylformamide. The mixture was stirred overnight and then evaporated. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane and washed with 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid. The dichloromethane phase was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using ethyl acetatelhexane (1:9 increasing to 2:8) for the elution. There were obtained 2.88 g of methyl 3(R)-(allyloxycarbonyl)-2(S)-hydroxy-5-methylhexanoate in the form of a pale yellow oil.
