Procedure

To a solution of 5-methyl-2-trityl-2H-tetrazole (0.90 g, 2.76 mmol) in dry THF (20 mL) at −78° C. under argon was added dropwise n-BuLi (2.5 M in hexane, 1.2 mL, 3 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred at −78° C. for 1 h, followed by the dropwise addition of a solution of (R)—N-((3-fluoro-5-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl)(4-fluorophenyl)methylene)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide, prepared as described in Procedure 3, 4 and 5, (0.40 g, 0.91 mmol) in THF (5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at −78° C. to −70° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched by addition of sat. NH4Cl and the aqueous layer was extracted with Et2O (2×) and the combined organic layers were washed with H2O, sat. NaCl, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by ISCO flash chromatography (silica gel, hexanes/EtOAc) to give (R)—N—((S)-1-(3-fluoro-5-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-trityl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethyl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide as the fast eluting diastereomer (90 mg, 13% yield) and (R)—N—((R)-1-(3-fluoro-5-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-trityl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethyl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide as the slow eluting diastereomer (85 mg, 12% yield).
