Reaction Steps

To Latanoprost free acid in MeOH at 0° C. was added TMS-CH2N2 until the solution persisted a yellow color. AcOH (2 drops) were added to quench excess TMS-CH2N2 and the solvents were evaporated. Column chromatography 70%-100% EtOAc/Hexanes gave pure (Z) -methyl 7-((1R,2R,3R,5S)-3,5-dihydroxy-2-((R)-3-hydroxy -5-phenylpentyl)cyclopentyl)hept-5-enoate (2).
