Participants

Reaction Steps

N-[(1R,2R)-2-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-indan-1-yl]-N-methyl-methanesulphonamide (0.53 g) is dissolved in 5 mL THF, combined with Bu4NF (5 mL of a 1 N solution in THF) and stirred for 2 h at RT. After the reaction is complete the reaction mixture is freed from the solvent. After the addition of CH2Cl2 it is extracted with HCl (aqu., 1 N). The organic phase is dried on MgSO4. After elimination of the solvent the mixture is purified by normal phase chromatography (CH2Cl2, MeOH). The product-containing fractions are combined and freed from the solvent using the rotary evaporator.
