Participants

Reaction Steps

The product from Example 61F (0.100 g, 0.227 mmoles), polystyrene supported triphenylphosphine (0.151 g, 0.454 mmoles, 3 mmoles P/g resin), and di-t-butylazodicarboxylate (0.079 g, 0.341 mmoles) in THF (2 mL) were treated with 2-methoxyethanol (0.022 g, 0.284 mmoles). The reaction mixture was shaken overnight at room temperature. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with H2O, brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the title compound without further purification.
