Procedure

To a stirring solution of (S)- or (R)-2-(2,2-Dimethyl-[1,3]dioxolan-4-ylmethoxy)-isoindole-1,3-dione (74.9 g, 0.27 mol) in dichloromethane (480 mL) at 3-5° C. was added methylhydrazine (15.8 mL, 0.29 mole) dropwise. The color of the suspension turned from yellow to white. The cooling bath was removed and the mixture was stirred for 2 hrs at ambient temperature. The resulting suspension was concentrated on a rotary evaporator. To the white solid was added ether (0.5 L) and the resulting mixture was stirred for 1.5 h at ambient temperature. The white precipitate was filtered and washed with ether (0.2 L). The filtrate was concentrated on rotary evaporator to give (S)- or (R)-O-(2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxolan-4-ylmethyl)-hydroxylamine (39.0 g, 98.3%): 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 1.35 (s, 3H), 1.42 (s, 3H), 3.73 (m, 3H), 4.05 (m, 1H), 4.33 (m, 1H), 5.39 (m, 2H); MS (APCI+)=148.1 (M++1)
