Procedure

To 2-(5-((tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)methyl)thiophen-2-yl)acetic acid (E231) in MeOH at 0° C. was added TMS-CH2N2 until the solution persisted in a yellow color and TLC indicated completion of the reaction. The solution stirred for 30 min and then was quenched with a few drops of AcOH. The solvents were evaporated and column chromatography (SiO2, 0-15% EtOAc/Hexanes) gave pure methyl 2-(5-((tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)methyl)thiophen-2-yl)acetate (E232).
