Reaction Steps

According to example 82, 1.87 g of tert-butyl (2R, 3S, 5S)-6-oxo-2,3-diphenyl-5-(3-cyclobutylbenzyl)-4-morpholinecarboxylate was treated with 3.1 mL of TFA in 30 mL of CH2Cl2 for 4 h. Neutralization with 8 mL of Et3N and work-up in the usual manner gave a light yellow residue. Purification of the crude material by flash chromatography on 85 g of silica gel (8:2 hexane:EtOAc) afforded 1.35 g (91%) of (2R, 3S, 5S)-6-oxo-2,3-diphenyl-5-(3-cyclobutylbenzyl)morpholine as a thick, transparent semi-solid.
