Reaction Steps

4-Fluorophenylhexyl(3,3-diethyl-4-methylthio-2-oxoazetidin-1-yl)acetate-Methyl (3,3-diethyl-4-methylthio-2-oxo-azetidin-1-yl)acetate (0.8 g, 3.2 mmol) was dissolved in benzene with 4-fluorophenylhexylalcohol (1.3 g, 6.5 mmol) and sodium methoxide (SOmg ,0.9 mmol) and the mixture refuxed for 2 h. The reaction mixture was evaporated and diluted with EtOAc, the solution washed with water, separated, dried (K2CO3) and flash chromatographed (hexane/ethyl acetate 9:1) to give 4-fluorophenylhexyl(3,3-diethyl-4-methylthio-2-oxoazetidin-1-yl)acetamide 0.17 g, 14% as an oil.
