Reaction Steps

Add trans-cyclopropane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid monomethyl ester, Example 3a, (19.46 g) in acetone to quinine (43.8 g) In one portion. Heat the reaction to reflux, and then add methylcyclohexane (150 mL). After crystallization (5 times) from acetone/methylcyclohexane, collect 6.2 g of the diastereomeric salt (═D:+173, c:7.3 CHCl3)
