Ethyl Acetate → HCID 9889658, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (5R,6S)-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-3-{4-[(methylamino)carbonyl]phenyl}-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid sodium salt (50 mg) in dry dimethylformamide (1 ml) was cooled with ice, and thereto was added pivaloyloxymethyl iodide (53 mg). The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hour. To the reaction solution were added ethyl acetate and ice-water, and separated. The organic layer was washed successively with a saturated brine (four times), an aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, an aqueous sodium thiosulfate solution, and a saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel thin layer chromatography (chloroform/methanol=9/1) to give [(2,2-dimethyl-propanoyl)oxy]methyl (5R,6S)-6-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-3-{4-[(methylamino)carbonyl]phenyl}-7-oxo-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-ene-2-carboxylate (27 mg).
