Reaction Steps

To a tetrahydrofuran solution (3 mL) of 1-(benzyloxy)-2-bromo-5-chloro-4-[4-[2-(methoxymethoxy)ethyl]benzyl]benzene (290 mg, 0.609 mmol) was added dropwise under nitrogen atmosphere at −78° C. a 2.6 M hexane solution of n-butyllithium (234 μL, 0.609 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 5 minutes at the same temperature. Then a tetrahydrofuran solution (3 mL) of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucono-1,5-lactone (328 mg, 0.609 mmol) was added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred for an hour at the same temperature. To the reaction solution was added a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride, and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride and brine, and dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The drying agent was filtered off, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. Thus obtained residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1) to obtain the title compound (124 mg, 22%) as a colorless oily compound.
