Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butylchlorodiphenylsilane (5.56 mL, 21.36 mmol) in DCM (20 mL) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of tert-butyl 3-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine-1-carboxylate (CAS no. 142253-56-3) (4.0 g, 21 mmol) and anhydrous N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (9.1 mL, 53 mmol) in DCM (45 mL) cooled to 10° C., over a period of 2 minutes under nitrogen. The resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 hours 4-dimethylaminopyridine (100 mg) was added and the reaction was left overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated and diluted with EtOAc (75 mL), and washed sequentially with saturated NaHCO3 (25 mL), water (20 mL) and saturated brine (20 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to afford the crude product (9.87 g) which was used without further purification.
