aqueous layer was exacted with ethyl acetate (3 × 50 mL).
The combined organic layer was washed with water and brine
successively, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and
concentrated to give a syrupy residue which was purified by

To an ice-cooled suspension of LiAlH4 (172 mg, 4.5 mmol) in
freshly distilled THF (20 mL) under argon was injected a
solution of compound 12 (394 mg, 0.91 mmol) in THF (8 mL).
The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 h at this temperature,
diluted with dry THF (10 mL), and quenched with ethanol (1
mL). The resulting mixture was filtered through a short silica
column. The solvent was evaporated to furnish the crude
amine, which was used in the next step without purification.
To a mixture of the crude amine and Et3N (0.21 mL, 1.5
mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added di-tert-butyl
dicarbonate (327 mg, 1.5 mmol) in an ice-cooled bath. The
reaction was stirred at 0 °C for 4 h and diluted with dichlo-
romethane (10 mL), washed with water and brine, dried (Na2-
SO4), and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product (330 mg)
dissolved in CH2Cl2 (15 mL) was reacted with tosyl chloride
(127 mg, 0.67 mmol), Et3N (0.15 mL, 1 mmol), and DMAP (15
mg) for 5 h at room temperature. The mixture was washed
with water and brine and then dried (Na2SO4). After removal
of the solvent, the crude product was purified by flash
chromatography (silica, Hex/AcOEt 6:1) to afford compound
13a (335 mg, 56% yield in three steps) and compound 13b (74
mg, 14% yield).
