Hydrochloric Acid → (R)-3-((S)-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(3-hydroxy-propyl)-1,3-oxazinan-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-6-allyl-3-((S)-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-oxazinan-2-one (1 g, 2.4 mmol) in dry THF (15 mL) was added dropwise BH3.THF (5 mL, 1 M) at 0° C. After stirring for 2 h at rt, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and water (1 mL), aqueous NaOH (0.5 mL, 3 M) and H2O2 (0.5 mL, 30%) were successively added. The mixture was stirred for 2-3 h at rt and diluted with water (8 mL). The pH was adjusted to 6-7 with 0.5 N HCl. The layers were separated, and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (3×10 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with a satd aq NaHCO3 (20 mL) and brine (20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude product, which was purified by preparative TLC to afford (R)-3-((S)-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethyl)-6-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(3-hydroxypropyl)-1,3-oxazinan-2-one (400 mg, 38%).
