Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of diisopropylamine (10.2 ml, 72.8 mmol) in THF (400 ml) at −78° C., n-BuLi (25.2 ml, 1.6 M in heptane) is added. The reaction is removed from the bath and stirred for 10 min. It is then cooled to −78° C. again and methyl tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxylate (6.48 ml, 48.6 mmol) is added. After 30 min, iodomethane (6.07 ml, 97 mmol) is added and the reaction allowed to reach rt. The reaction is then quenched with 1 N HCl (200 mL) and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer is dried and evaporated to give 4-methyl-tetrahydro-pyran-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester. MS (ESI) m/z 159.3 (M+1).
