Dimethyl Sulfoxide → N-[(4aR,6R,8aS)-8a-(2,4-Difluorophenyl)-6-formyl-4,4a,5,6,8,8a-hexahydropyrano[3,4-d][1,3]thiazin-2-yl]benzamide

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (16.7 mL, 120 mmol) was added in one portion to a solution of N-[(4aR,6R,8aS)-8a-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-6-(hydroxymethyl)-4,4a,5,6,8,8a-hexahydropyrano[3,4-d][1,3]thiazin-2-yl]benzamide (C9) (4.18 g, 10.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (200 mL) that was immersed in a room temperature water bath. After 5 minutes, anhydrous dimethyl sulfoxide (9.94 mL, 140 mmol) was rapidly added, followed immediately by solid sulfur trioxide pyridine complex (98%, 13.0 g, 80.0 mmol) in a single portion. The resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 6.5 hours, then diluted with a 1:1 mixture of water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (200 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (2×200 mL), and the combined organic layers were washed with water (100 mL), washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (100 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification via silica gel chromatography (Gradient: 0% to 100% ethyl acetate in heptane) gave the product as a white solid. Yield: 2.81 g, 6.75 mmol, 67%.
