tert-butyl N-[(2R)-2-fluoro-3-hydroxypropyl]carbamate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Imidazole (26.6 g, 0.39 mol) was dissolved in methylene chloride (400 mL) at room temperature. Iodine (102.5 g, 0.39 mol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred for 10 min at room temperature and then cooled to 0° C. Triphenylphosphine (102.5 g, 0.39 mol) was added portionwise over 10 min such that the internal temperature remained below 10° C. A solution of tert-butyl (2R)-2-fluoro-3-hydroxypropylcarbamate (60.4 g, 0.31 mol) in methylene chloride (100 mL) was added dropwise. On completion of addition of tert-butyl (2R)-2-fluoro-3-hydroxypropylcarbamate, additional methylene chloride (200 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirring was continued for 17 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite® (50 g) and washed with additional methylene chloride. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with methylene chloride. This procedure afforded tert-butyl (2R)-2-fluoro-3-iodopropylcarbamate as a white solid (64.7 g, 68%). cooled to 0° C remained below 10° C was added to warm to room temperature stirring was continued for 17 h The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite® (50 g) washed with additional methylene chloride The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with methylene chloride
