Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3R,4S)-1-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxy)-3-(3-phenyl-1-propyl)-4-propylazetidin-2-one (1.22 g, 3.69 mmol) in THF-methanol (2:1, 15 mL) is added 1 N aqueous sodium hydroxide (5.5 mL). The solution is stirred at 23° C. for 36 h, is acidified to pH 3 with saturated aqueous sodium bisulfate solution, and is extracted with two 100-mL portions of EtCOAc. The combined organics are dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide (2R,3s)-2-(3-phenyl-1-propyl)-3-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxyamino)hexanoic acid as an oil (0.93 g, 72% yield).
