2,2-Dimethoxypropane → HCID 66798200, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (1S,2R,3R,5R)-3-(hydroxymethyl)-5-{[6-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-ylamino)pyrimidin-4-yl]amino}cyclopentane-1,2-diol (70.0 mg, 0.19 mmol) in acetone (5.00 mL) was added 2,2-dimethoxypropane (0.21 mL, 1.70 mmol) and pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (57.0 mg, 0.23 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 55 h. The reaction mixture was quenched by addition of saturated NaHCO3 solution (50.0 mL) and then extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50.0 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and evaporated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (2 to 10% Methanol/DCM) to afford the title compound (72.0 mg, 85%) as a light yellow amorphous solid. LC/MS: Rt=1.59 min, ES+ 411.3 (AA standard).
