Reaction Steps

In a 2 L round-bottomed flask, 3-((3S,8S,9S,10R,13R,14S,17R)-10,13-dimethyl-17-((R)-6-methylheptan-2-yl)-2,3,4,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17-tetradecahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]phenanthren-3-yloxy)propan-1-amine (21.15 g, 47.7 mmol, Eq: 1.00) and Huenig's base (12.3 g, 16.6 ml, 95.3 mmol, Eq: 2.00) were combined with AcOEt (845 ml) to give a colorless solution. Dihydrofuran-2,5-dione (4.77 g, 47.7 mmol, Eq: 1.00) in THF (42 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature over night=>white suspension. All volatiles were removed i. v., the residue dissolved in CH2Cl2, the organic layer washed with NH4Cl and brine, dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated to dryness. The crude product was dissolved in CH3CN/H2O and lyophilized to yield 29.8 g of the title compound as fluffy powder. MS (ISP): (M−H) 542.5.
