Reaction Steps

To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 1-cyclohexyl-3-oxopentan-2-ylcarbamate in THF/MeOH (604/15 mL) at 0° C. was carefully added NaBH4 (630 mg, 16.66 mmol). After 20 min, sat. aq. NH4Cl was added to quench the reaction, and extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to give (S)-tert-butyl 1-cyclohexyl-3-hydroxypentan-2-ylcarbamate (4.77 g, 96%, in a ratio of 40:60) as a white solid. MS ESI +ve m/z 286 (M+H).
