Reaction Steps

A sample of 20 (650 mg, 2.9 mmol) and (1S,2S) pseudoephedrine (500 mg, 3.0 mmol) in 40 mL of benzene was refluxed overnight using a Dean-Stark trap. Solvent removal yielded yellow crystals which were recrystallized from a minimum of hot hexanes to give white crystals of 21 (841 mg, 79%), mp=83.5-85.5° C.
