Participants

Reaction Steps

Dissolve 4-[(1S,2S)-1-benzyloxy-2-dibenzylamino-3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-propyl]-2,2-dimethyloxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (2.42 g, 3.68 mmol) in dry dioxane (16 mL). To the solution add 4 M hydrogen chloride in 1,4-dioxane (32.2 mL, 129 mmol) and stir for three hours. Concentrate to give the hydrochloride salt of the desired product as a white solid (2.17 g, 100%). Slurry the solid in ethyl acetate (150 mL) and stir vigorously with saturated sodium bicarbonate (100 mL). Separate the layers and dry (magnesium sulfate) to give the desired compound.
