tert -Butyl N -Allyl- N -(3-oxopropyl)carbamate (6) Acrolein (16.9 g, 302 mmol) and camphorsulfonic acid (1.40 g, 6.04 mmol) were added to an ice-cooled solution of N-Boc allylamine (5, 4.75 g, 30.2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (75 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at 0 ˚C for 15 min and at 23 ˚C for 30 min. The mixture was then washed with sat. NaHCO3 solution (75 mL), and the organic layer was dried (MgSO4). After filtration, the solvent was removed, and the residue was purified by chromatography on SiO2 (hexane-MTBE, 1:1; R f = 0.33) to yield the title compound 6 (4.34 g, 20.4 mmol, 67%) as a colorless liquid. ¹H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 1.42 (s, 9 H), 2.61-2.69 (m, 2 H), 3.45-3.53 (m, 2 H), 3.76-3.85 (m, 2 H), 5.05-5.15 (m, 2 H), 5.67-5.80 (m, 1 H), 9.76 (t, J = 1.6 Hz, 1 H) ppm. ¹³C{¹H} NMR (125 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 28.29 (3 × CH3), 40.64 (CH2), 43.34 (CH2), 50.42 (CH2), 79.97 (C), 116.36 (CH2), 133.95 (CH), 155.16 (C), 200.85 (CH) ppm.

14tert -Butyl 7-Benzyl-8-oxa-3,7-diazabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane-3-carboxylate (9) Benzylhydroxylamine (485 mg, 3.94 mmol) was added to a solution of aldehyde 6 (800 mg, 3.75 mmol) in MeCN (16 mL), and the mixture was stirred for 30 min at 23 ˚C and for 16 h under reflux. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was chromatographed on SiO2 (hexane-EtOAc, 2:1; R f = 0.29) to yield the title compound 9 (964 mg, 3.03 mmol, 81%) as a colorless solid, mp 65-66 ˚C.

Pd/C (100 mg, 10% w/w
Pd) and ammonium formate (315 mg, 5.00 mmol) were added to a solution
of isoxazolidine 9 (318 mg, 1.00 mmol)
in MeOH (8 mL), and the mixture was heated under reflux for 3 h.
After cooling, the mixture was filtered through Celite, the residue
was rinsed with CH2Cl2 (ca. 15 mL), and the
filtrate was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (3 mL)
and the solution cooled in an ice bath. CbzCl (239 mg, 1.40 mmol)
and Et3N (142 mg, 1.40 mmol) were added, the ice bath
was removed, and the mixture stirred at 23 ˚C
for 16 h. After removing the solvents under reduced pressure the
residue was purified by chromatography on SiO2 (hexane-MTBE,
10: 1; R

give the title compound 10 (240 mg, 0.659
mmol, 66%) as a colorless resin. Due to the carbamate group,
NMR spectra show a partially doubled signal set, ratio ca. 2:1. ¹H
