Procedure

Into a stirred, cooled (0° C.) suspension of LiAlH4 (3.3 g, 88 mmol) in 60 ml of dry THF, was introduced (8S)-8-hydroxyhexahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4-dione (D70, 750 mg, 4.4 mmol) in small portions. The mixture was then allowed to reach rt and stirred for 48 h, after which it was cooled to 0° C. THF was introduced (70 ml), then successively a saturated solution of Na—K-tartrate (5 ml) and a 20% aqueous NaOH solution (5 ml) were dropped into the flask, under vigorous stirring. The suspension was stirred for 30 min at rt, and filtered. The pale filter cake was washed with 100 ml of CHCl3 and the combined filtrates and washings were evaporated in vacuo to give 500 mg of the title compound. From GC-MS analysis 2 diastereomeric products were still observed. Yield 80%.
