Reaction Conditions:

with potassium carbonate at 130 - 140;

Steps:

4.2.1 Synthesis of (R,S) 4-phenyloxazolidin-2-one 13
General procedure: A dry 250ml three-necked round bottom flask equipped with a thermometer and a 10cm vigreux column with a distillation head, was charged with 4.3g of the (R,S)-phenylglycinol (31.4mmol) obtained and added of 9.3g of diethyl carbonate (79.0mmol) and 0.43g of K₂CO₃ (3.10mmol). The mixture was heated carefully to 130-140°C and the ethanol was distils as it formed. The oily residue was cooled and added by 50ml of CH₂Cl₂ to facilitate the filtration of the remaining potassium carbonate. The organic phase was then washed with a satured solution of NaHCO₃, separated and dried over anhydrous Na₂SO₄, filtrate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized from AcOEt/Etp (1:3) to afford 4.3g (26.4mmol, 85%) of 13 as a white solid.
