Org. Chem., 2002, 67, 3548-3554) are dissolved in 110 ml of acetonitrile under argon. 330 mg (2.7 mmol) of 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 1.73 ml (54.2 mmol) of methanol are added thereto. The mixture is cooled to −10° C., and 6.23 g (32.5 mmol) of EDC are added. The mixture is slowly allowed to reach RT and is then stirred for 20 h. The solvent is then evaporated in vacuo, and the residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel (mobile phase: cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (6:1)).
