Reaktionsschritte

2.5 g (24.75 mmol) of triethylamine are added dropwise at a temperature of 20° C. to a suspension of 9.6 g (24.45 mmol) of ursodeoxycholic acid in 60 ml of dioxane. Once solubilized, the mixture is cooled to 10° C., 2.98 g (24.70 mmol) of pivaloyl chloride are added slowly and the temperature is then allowed to rise spontaneously to 20° C. The salts formed are filtered off and the precipitate is washed with dioxane, the washings being added to the solution. 3.84 g (30.72 mmol) of taurine dissolved in 24 ml of 1N NaOH are added to the solution obtained and the mixture is stirred for 3 hours at 15° C. The reaction can be followed by thin layer chromatography using CHCl3 /MeOH/AcOH=70/30/5 as the eluent.
