Procedure

A mixture of 3.75 g (9.2 mmole) of [(2R)-7-nitro-8-(2-oxoethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-2-yl]methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate and 3.0 g of platinum oxide in 50 mL of ethyl acetate was treated with 45 psi of hydrogen on a Parr hydrogenation apparatus for 6 hours. The mixture was then filtered through celite and concentrated in vacuum. The residue was column chromatographed on silica gel with first 10% hexane/methylene chloride, then 1% methanol/methylene chloride and finally 2% methanol/methylene chloride to give 1.50 g of the (R)-enantiomer of the title compound as a white solid one-quarter hydrate, m.p. 145° C.
