Reaction Steps

A solution of 5-[(3aR,4R,6R,6aR)-6-methoxy-2,2-dimethyltetrahydrofuro[3,4-d][1,3]dioxol-4-yl]-4-benzyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione (Preparation 18) (2.2 g, 6.1 mmol) in acetic acid (30 ml) was treated portionwise with sodium nitrite (1.2 g, 18 mmol) over 30 minutes. After an additional 30 minutes, the solvent was removed by evaporation under reduced pressure and the residue was suspended in acetone (30 ml). The insoluble inorganic salts were removed by filtration and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was then dissolved in dichloromethane (30 ml), the mixture was filtered again and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (2.0 g).
