Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

8.01 gram (15.2 mmol) of (−)-2-methoxycarbonylamino-2′-diphenylphosphinyl-1,1′-binaphthyl (the formula (1-2b-1)) was dissolved in 304 ml of methanol. To the solution, 152 ml of 40 percent aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide was added dropwise over 30 minutes and then stirred at 95° C. for 2 hours. The resultant mixture was extracted with 300 ml of ethyl acetate, and the extract was washed with brine, and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure and the residue was purified using a silica gel column chromatography (eluent:ethyl acetate) to obtain 7.16 gram of the titled compound.
