To a stirred solution of (S)-2,2-dimethyl-4-(2-oxo-ethyl)-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (15.5 g; CAS 147959-19-1) in dry diethyl ether (100 ml) under an argon atmosphere at room temperature was added dropwise a solution of ethylmagnesium bromide in diethyl ether (42.6 ml, 3 M solution) and stirring continued for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was then quenched by careful addition of water (10 ml) and the mixture was then filtered through decalite. The filtrate was washed sequentially with water and with saturated brine and then the organic phase was separated, dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The reside was purified by column chromatography (SiO2; gradient: heptane/EtOAc 100:0→50:50) to give (S)-4-((R)-2-hydroxy-butyl)-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (7.30 g) from fractions eluting first and (S)-4-((S)-2-hydroxy-butyl)-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (6.44 g) from fractions eluting later, both compounds as colourless oils. (S)-4-((R)-2-Hydroxy-butyl)-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester: 1H NMR δ (CDCl3, 300 MHz): 4.52 (1H, br. D, J=3.3 Hz), 4.23 (1H, m), 4.00 (1H, dd, J=8.7 & 5.4 Hz), 3.66 (1H, d, J=8.7 Hz), 3.40 (1H, m), 1.79 (1H, td, J=11.4 & 2.1 Hz), 1.60-1.44 (16H, m), 0.95 (3H, t, J=7.5 Hz). (S)-4-((S)-2-Hydroxy-butyl)-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidine-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester: 1H NMR δ (CDCl3, 300 MHz): 4.12 (1H, m), 3.98 (1H, dd, J=9.0 & 5.7 Hz), 3.82 (1H, m), 3.55 (1H, m), 2.88 (1H, br. s), 1.79 (1H, m), 1.70-1.40 (16H, m), 0.95 (3H, t, J=7.5 Hz).
