25. GCMS of the sample revealed partial racemization of 6 under hydrolysis conditions (6 M HCl, 100 °C, 10 h, ∼12:1 ratio of S:R). We surmise that the mechanism of epimerization at C-3 of 6 is reversible thermal elimination of HCl from the trichloroisopropyl group. During a second hydrolysis of 4, under more harsh conditions (12 h, 110 °C), the racemization of 6 appeared to be complete.
