Participants

Reaction Steps

To an ice cooled solution of allyl (E)-2-(2-thienyl)-2-(hydroxyimino)acetate (1.0 gm, 4.734 mmol), 5-benzhydryloxy-2-(hydroxymethyl) pyran-4-one (1.46 gm, 4.734 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (1.24 gm, 4.734 mmol) in dry THF (30 ml) under nitrogen was added dropwise diethyl azodicarboxylate (820 μl, 5.208 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the crude as yellow gum (4.93 gm). The product was purified by silica gel column chromatography using hexane-ethyl acetate (2:1) as eluant to provide the title compound as a gummy foam in 47% yield (1.11 gm).
