Reaktionsschritte

85 mg of vanadium oxyacetylacetonate were dissolved in dichloromethane followed by dropping 7.1 ml of t-butylhydroperoxide (3.0 M, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane solution) and stirring for 20 minutes. Next, a dichloromethan solution of 3.0 g of (1S,4aS,7aR)-7-(hydroxymethyl)-1-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-1,4a,5,7a-tetrahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrane-4-carboxylic acid methylester was dropped thereinto followed by stirring for 17 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. After washing the organic phase with brine, it was dried over magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography to obtain colorless needles from the hexane-ether eluate in the form of (1S,4aS,6S,7R,7aR)-6,7-epoxy-7-(hydroxymethyl)-1-(methylcarbamoyloxy)-1,4a,5,6,7,7a-hexahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrane-4-carboxylic acid methylester (2.9 g, yield: 89%). The physicochemical properties of this compound are described in Table 9, Compound No. 45.
