Reaction Steps

3-Cyclopropyl-4-(5,5-dimethyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-ylsulfonylmethyl)-5-methyl-isoxazole (108 mg, 0.36 mmol) was dissolved in THF (5 ml) under nitrogen. The solution was cooled to −78° C. and potassium tert-butoxide (0.4 ml, 0.4 mmol) added, followed by hexachloroethane (90 mg, 0.4 mmol). The solution was allowed to warm to room temperature, diluted with water (20 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×15 ml). The combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluent: ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the product (Compound No. 3.07 of Table 29) as a white solid (53 mg, 44% yield).
