Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of sodium chlorite (2.85 g; 31.5 mmol; 5.5 eq.) and sodium dihydrogenphosphate (2.47 g; 20.6 mmol; 3.6 eq.) in water (25 mL) was added dropwise to a mixture of 2-methyl-2-butene (5.7 mL) and [2-(2-formyl-phenoxy)-ethyl]-methyl-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.6 g; 5.73 mmol; 1 eq.) in 1,4-dioxane (25 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hour. After dilution with EA, the solution was washed with 1M HCl, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound (2.1 g, 93%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.66-7.59 (dd, J=7.7, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.52-7.42 (m, OH), 7.16-7.10 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.03-6.94 (td, J=7.5, 1.0 Hz, 1H), 4.18-4.07 (m, 1H), 3.54-3.48 (t, J=5.4 Hz, 2H), 2.96-2.86 (d, J=11.7 Hz, 3H), 1.42-1.31 (m, 9H).
