Procedure
(2-Hydroxymethyl-phenyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (44.7 g, 0.200 mol), CH2Cl2 (625 mL) and manganese(IV) oxide (85%, 5 μm powder; 245.5 g, 2.400 mol) were introduced into a flask. The mixture was stirred at 40° C. for at least 4 h or until HPLC analysis showed that the reaction had proceeded to greater than 97% completion. The cooled mixture was filtered through a Celite pad (22 g) and the filter cake was rinsed with CH2Cl2 (625 mL). The filtrate and wash were concentrated in vacuo to dryness to afford the title compound as an oily yellow material (44 g, 99% yield).
