Reaction Steps

A solution of (2S*, 3R*)-4-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-2-methoxy-1,1,1-trifluoro-2,3-epoxy-butane (957 mg, 2.8 mmol) in ethyl acetate (30 ml) was hydrogenated at atmospheric pressure over palladium hydroxide/carbon (20%, 290 mg) for 1 hour. The mixture was filtered through celite and washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and chromatographed on silica gel (hexane:ethyl acetate=7:1-5:1) to give the title compound (691 mg, 97%) as a colorless oil.
