Reaction Steps

To a 5 L 3-neck round-bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, thermocouple and nitrogen inlet was added a mixture of hexanes (IL). The vessel was cooled to 0° C. A 2.0M solution of Me3Al in hexanes (800 mL, 1.6 mol) was added, followed by a solution of epoxide 16 (120 g, 0.677 mol) in hexanes (250 mL)/CH12C12 (50 mL), maintaining the temperature below 20° C. Upon complete addition, the cloudy reaction mixture was stirred at 5° C. for 35 min. Then a solution of 10% HCl (300 mL) was added dropwise, followed by the addition of conc HCl (350 mL). The layers were separated, and the organic phase was washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. After removal of the volatiles in vacuo, the title compound (122.1 g) was obtained as an oil.
