Reaction Steps

Under argon, a mixture of 13 g of 3-[5-(tert-butyldimethylsilanyloxy)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenylamino)-2-(2-oxo-4-phenyloxazolidine-3-carbonyl)pentyl]benzonitrile 12, 50 ml of bistrimethylsilylacetamide, 0.5 g of tetrabutylammonium fluoride and 100 ml of tert-butyl methyl ether is stirred at room temperature for 10 h. After the reaction has ended, 5 ml of acetic add are added slowly with ice-cooling, and the mixture is concentrated. The residue is separated by silica gel chromatography (ethyl acetate/heptane=⅛). This gives 13:
