Reaktionsschritte

In another preparation of the aforesaid valerate, isobutyraldehyde (0.72 g) was added to a mixture of [(1-methoxy-2-methyl-1-propenyl)oxy]trimethylsilane (1.74 g, 10 mmol) and (TAS)HF2 (100 mg, 0.1 mmol) in 20 mL of tetrahydrofuran under argon at -11°. The reaction mixture was stirred and the temperature was allowed to rise to 23°. Stirring was continued for 18 h and the mixture was then poured into 200 mL of ethyl acetate and extracted with water (200 mL), followed by washing with aqueous brine (200 mL). The organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo to give 2.39 g (97% yield) of methyl 2,2,4-trimethyl-3-trimethylsiloxyvalerate.
