Reaction Steps

A 500 L glass-lined reactor was charged with (3R,4S,5R,6R)-3,4,5-tris(trimethylsilyloxy)-6-((trimethylsilyloxy)methyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one (11.4 kg) and n-heptane (12.2 kg) and the mixture was cooled to −15° C. under nitrogen sparging for 1 h. iPrMgCl.LiCl (0.5 kg, 1.3 M in THF) was added dropwise and the mixture was stirred for 30 min at −15° C.
