p-Toluenesulfonic acid → HCID 67919657, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (3S,4S)-4-(1-hydroxymethylethenyl)-3-(1-(R)-benzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-1-di(p-anisyl)methyl-2-azetidinone (106 mg) and dihydropyran (25 mg) in dry dichloromethane (1 mg) was treated with p-toluenesulfonic acid (1 mg) at room temperature for 50 minutes. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Filtration and concentration of the filtrate in vacuo gave an oily residue, which was purified by thin-layer chromatography (SiO2) to yield (3S,4S)-4-(1-tetrahydropyranyloxymethylethenyl)-3-(1-(R)-benzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-1-di(p-anisyl)methyl-2-azetidinone.
