Reaction Steps

To a solution of [(3S,4S,5R,6S)-3,4,5-tribenzyloxy-6-[4-chloro-3-[[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]methyl]phenyl]-2-(hydroxymethyl)-6-methoxy-tetrahydropyran-2-yl]methanol 15n (0.57 g, 0.72 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 mL) was added trifluoroacetic acid (0.22 mL, 2.88 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (10 mL) and extracted with dichloromethane (10 mL×2). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride (10 mL×2), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluted with PE/EtOAc(v/v)=10/1 to give the title compound 15o as pale yellow oil (475 mg, 88.3%). The compound was characterized by the following spectroscopic data: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ(ppm): 7.59 (d, 1H), 7.48 (s, 2H), 7.36-7.23 (m, 12H), 7.17 (m, 5H), 6.84 (d, 2H), 5.22 (t, 1H), 4.78 (m, 4H), 4.32 (d, 1H), 4.12 (m, 3H), 3.95 (d, 1H), 3.87 (m, 1H), 3.78 (m, 3H), 3.59 (dd, 1H), 3.52 (d, 1H).
