The title synthesis was achieved by featuring diastereoface-selective cyclopropanation of (4R,5S)-4,5-diphenyl-3-vinyl-2-oxazolidinone and its related compounds, the chiral conformationally rigid N-vinylcarbamates, with zinc-monofluorocarbenoid, followed by hydrogenolysis of the major addition products. The diastereoface-selectivity of the cyclopropanation could be explained by the most stable conformation of 3-vinyl-2-oxazolidinone derivatives and attack from the less hindered face of the conformer.
