Reaction Steps

Following the cyclization reaction, the formed oxazolidinone is N-acylated to form the nucleophilic precursor of the molecule. The oxazolidinone is reacted with butyllithium in hexane, to form the conjugate base and then reacted with an acyl halide such as propionyl chloride at -71° C., for 0.5-1 hour to yield the N-propionyloxazolidinone.
