To a stirring solution of tert-butyl 4-methylcyclohex-3-enylcarbamate (1.5844 g, 7.50 mmol) in THF (94 mL) at 0° C. was added 1M borane THF complex (33.7 mL, 33.7 mmol). The solution was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h and then at room temperature for 2 h. The reaction was quenched very slowly with water (40.5 mL, 2249 mmol), diluted with ethanol (39.8 mL, 682 mmol) and basified with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (5 N, 37.5 mL, 187 mmol). To the stirring biphasic mixture was slowly added hydrogen peroxide (38.3 mL, 375 mmol) and the resulting mixture was heated to 45° C. for 20 h. The crude reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous sodium sulfite solution (70 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (0-100% ethyl acetate in hexanes). The product fractions were combined and concentrated to afford a mixture of four isomers of tert-butyl 3-hydroxy-4-methylcyclohexylcarbamate (trans relationship between 3-hydroxy and 4-methyl moieties) (0.9608 g, 4.19 mmol, 55.9% yield) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 6.60-6.85 (m, 1H), 4.29-4.58 (m, 1H), 3.35-3.80 (m, 1H), 2.81-3.28 (m, 1H), 1.20-1.96 (m, 14H), 0.79-1.14 (m, 5H; MS (ESI) m/z 230.5 [M+1]+.
