  • the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. Saturated NaHCO 3 was added.
  • the organic layer was extracted with dichloromethane.
  • the organic extracts were combined, they were dried and concentrated. The resulting solid was filtered and it was washed with heptane.
  • (3R)-(11) was gradually hydrolyzed, while (3S)-(11) remained intact.
  • the latter was extracted with ethyl acetate and it was subjected to another (nonstereo-specific) enzymatic hydrolysis in order to obtain (2R,3R,4S)-N-benzyl-4-hydroxyisoleucine.
  • Catalytic hydrogenolysis of this N-protected amino acid gave (1).
