4-Benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-(R)-hydroxybutyric acid (2.245 g) synthesized according to the method of H. Naito et al. (J. Antibiot., Vol. 26, pp. 297-301 (1973)) was dissolved in 25.6 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide. Barium oxide (6.795 g) was added to the solution under ice cooling with stirring, and the mixture was vigorously stirred for 2 min. Barium hydroxide octahydrate (5.593 g) was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was vigorously stirred under ice cooling for 10 min. Benzyl bromide (3.16 mL) was added thereto, and the mixture was vigorously stirred under ice cooling for 5 min. The reaction mixture was returned to room temperature and was vigorously stirred for 1.5 hr. Water (0.48 mL) was added under ice cooling, and the mixture was diluted with 70 mL of chloroform. 4 M hydrochloric acid (31 mL) was added to the diluted solution. Water (11 mL) was then added thereto followed by separation. The water layer was extracted with 22 mL+10 mL of chloroform. The combined organic layers were washed with 30 mL of saturated brine, were dried over magnesium sulfate and were concentrated to dryness to give 4.54 g of a crude product. The product was purified by column chromatography on 70 g of a neutral silica gel (chloroform→chloroform:ethyl acetate=4:1→chloroform:methanol=10:1→chloroform:methanol-acetic acid=10:1:0.1) to give the title compound (1.107 g, 36%).
