To a mixture of crude (R)—N-methoxy-N-methyl-2-((S)-2-oxooxazolidin-4-yl)propanamide (1.3 g, 6.43 mmol) and (bromomethyl)benzene (1.30 mL, 11.4 mmol) in THF (25 mL) was added slowly sodium hydride (60% wt.; 0.643 g) at 0° C. [Caution: gas development!]. The ice bath was removed and the mixture was stirred for ˜2 hr. The mixture were diluted carefully with water and ethyl acetate. The reaction was repeated on the same scale and the mixtures were combined. The aqueous layer was separated and extracted with ethyl acetate (1×). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered off and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography [SiO2, 80 g, EtOAc/heptane=5/95 to 75/25] to provide (R)-2-((S)-3-benzyl-2-oxooxazolidin-4-yl)-N-methoxy-N-methylpropanamide (1.83 g) as a slightly yellow oil, which contained also N-methoxy-N-methylisobutyramide. MS m/z 293.7 (M+H)+; Rt-0.64 min.
