21. Oxazolidine Preparation (Method A); General Procedure. A solution of the amino alcohol (20 mmol) and aldehyde (20 mmol) in EtOH (20 mL) was stirred at r.t. for 90 min. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure; EtOH (3 × 10 mL) was added, then removed under reduced pressure repeatedly. The product was then dried under high vacuum to give the oxazolidine as a colourless oil.
22. Oxazolidine Preparation (Method B); General Procedure. A trace of iodine was added to a solution of amino alcohol (174 mmol) and aldehyde (174 mmol) in anhyd benzene (125 mL). The reaction mixture was heated under Dean-Stark water-removal conditions for 90 min. After removal of the solvent under reduced pressure the residue was distilled under reduced pressure to give the oxazolidine as a colourless oil.
