Procedure

To 130 ml of a methanol solution of 25.5 g (0.153 mol) of the methyl (3R)-2-chloro-3-hydroxypentanoate obtained in (2) above was added dropwise 30 g (0.155 mol) of a 28% methanol solution of sodium methoxide at 0 to 5° C., followed by stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. After confirming disappearance of the methyl (3R)-2-chloro-3-hydroxypentanoate by TLC, methanol was evaporated. The concentrate was cooled, adjusted to pH 8 to 9 with 120 ml of a phosphate buffer, and extracted with 300 ml of isopropyl ether. The isopropyl ether was evaporated, and the residue was purified by column chromatography to give 16.5 g (0.126 mol; yield: 82.87%) of the title compound.
