A solution of 4,4-dimethyl-heptanoic acid (1.58 g, 10 mmol) and triethylamine (4.6 mL) in 50 mL THF was cooled to 0° C. and treated with 2,2-dimethyl-propionyl chloride (1.36 mL). After one hour, 4R-methyl-5S-phenyl-oxazolidin-2-one (1.95 g, 11 mmol) and lithium chloride (0.47 g, 11 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred for 18 hours. The precipitate was filtered and washed thoroughly with additional THF. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give an oily solid. This solid was dissolved in 200 mL Et2O, washed successively with saturated NaHCO3, 0.5N HCl and saturated NaCl, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound as an oil (3.0 g, 95%). 1HNMR (400 MHz; CDCl3): 0.73-0.84 (m, 12H), 1.10-1.22 (m, 4H), 1.46-1.54 (m, 2H), 2.75-2.87 (m, 2H), 4.70 (m, 1H, J=7 Hz), 5.59 (d, 1H, J=7 Hz), 7.22-7.37 (m, 5H). 5,5-Dimethyl-(S)-3-((R)-4-methyl-2-oxo-(S)-5-phenyl-oxazolidine-3-carbonyl)-octanoic acid tert-butyl ester: According to example 1, 5.07 g (16 mmol) of 3-(4,4-dimethyl-heptanoyl)-4-methyl-5-phenyl-oxazolidin-2-one, 18 mL (1N, 18 mmol) of NaHMDS solution and 4.72 mL (32 mmol) of bromo-acetic acid tert-butyl ester gave 3.40 g (49.3%) of the title compound as a crystalline solid. 1HNMR (400 MHz; CDCl3): 0.85-0.89 (m, 12H), 1.18-1.32 (m, 6H), 1.41 (s, 9H), 1.88 (dd, 1H, J=6 Hz, 8.4 Hz), 2.41 (dd, 1H, J=6 Hz, 16 Hz), 2.62 (dd, 1H, J=8.4 Hz, 16 Hz), 4.30-4.40 (m, 1H), 4.72 (m, 1H), 5.62 (d, 1H, J=7 Hz), 7.30-7.40 (m, 5H). m.p.: 83-85° C.
