Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-2-(3-methoxy-4-nitrobenzamido)propyl methanesulfonate (1 equiv) in THF (0.14 M) was added sodium hydride (4 equiv, 60% in mineral oil). The mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 5 h. The reaction was quenched with aqueous ammonium chloride, diluted with ethyl acetate (0.16 M), and then washed with water (0.27 M) and brine (0.27 M). The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (0.16 M). The combined organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated. The crude compound was purified by silica gel chromatography (15% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether) to afford the desired compound (71% yield). MS (ESI) m/z 235.1 [M+H]+.
