Procedure
The (3R,7aS)-methyl 6-(3-chloropropyl)-5-oxo-3-phenyl-hexahydropyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazole-6-carboxylate (36.90 g) was dissolved in 300 mL of THF and the mixture cooled to 0° C. A solution of LiOH.H2O (22.97 g, 0.548 mol, 5.0 equiv) in water (273 mL, 2.0 M) was cooled to 5° C. and added to the THF solution. The mixture was stirred at 10° C. and the progress of the hydrolysis monitored by LC/MS. After 3 h the methyl ester was completely consumed. EtOAc (100 mL) was added and concentrated HCL added till the pH<2. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel and the layers separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with 100 mL EtOAc, the combined organic layers washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated. The (3R,7aS)-6-(3-chloropropyl)-5-oxo-3-phenyl-hexahydropyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazole-6-carboxylic acid was isolated as a tan solid (32.65 g, 92% yield) after removal of residual solvent in vacuo.
