Pyridine 4-methylbenzene-1-sulfonate → (5Z,13E)-(8R,9S,11R,12R,15S,16RS)-9-Chloro-11,15-dihydroxy-16,19-dimethyl-5,13,18-prostatrienoic Acid

Reaktionsschritte

A solution of 144 mg of (5Z,13E)-(8R,9S,11R,12R,15S,16RS)-9-chloro-11,15-bis(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-16,19-dimethyl-5,13,18-prostatrienoic acid in 2 ml of absolute ethanol was combined with 6.4 mg of pyridine p-toluenesulfonate and agitated for 5 days at room temperature under argon. The reaction mixture was then diluted with 100 ml of methylene chloride, washed twice with saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated to dryness under vacuum. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with hexane/50-100% ethyl acetate as the eluent, thus obtaining 42.5 mg of the desired carboxylic acid as a highly viscous oil.
