Diisopropylethylamine → tert-butyl (2R,3R,4S)-5-azido-3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-1-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (4R)-4-((1R,2S)-3-azido-1-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}-2-methylpropyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidine-3-carboxylate (1.09 g, 2.6 mmol) in EtOH (15 mL), pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (1.3 g, 5.2 mmol) was added. The mixture was heated under reflux for 2 days. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in DCM (25 mL), and DIPEA (0.67 mL, 3.8 mmol) was added followed by di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (0.67 g, 3.1 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 h, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (0-25% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford the sub-title compound (0.56 g, 56%). LCMS calc. for C12H29N4O2Si (M+H-Boc)+: m/z=289.2. found 289.2.
