Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (R)-2,2-dimethyl-4-(6-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-3-ylcarbamoyl)-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (0.20 g, 0.51 mmol) in dimethylsulfoxide (4 ml) under an argon atmosphere was added sodium hydride (0.028 g, 0.59 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 20 min. Iodoethane (0.05 ml, 0.61 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. Water (20 ml) was added and the mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4) and filtered. After removal of the solvent the residue was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, heptane/EtOAc=1:1) to yield a light yellow oil (0.15 g, 70%), MS (ISP): 418.2 ([M+H]+).
