1-Methylimidazole → (2R,3R,4R)-2-fluoro-3,5-bis(benzyloxy)-4-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)pentanal O-methyloxime

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.26 g of 2,4,5-trichlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride and 0.430 mL of 1-methylimidazole were added to a solution of 1.09 g of (2R,3R,4R)-2-fluoro-4-hydroxy-3,5-bis(benzyloxy)pentanal O-methyloxime in 10.4 mL of acetonitrile at room temperature, and the obtained mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 14.5 hours. Thereafter, ethyl acetate and a saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate aqueous solution were added to the reaction mixture. A solid was removed by filtration, and the organic layer was then fractionated. The obtained organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was then distilled away under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate), so as to obtain 1.50 g of (2R,3R,4R)-2-fluoro-3,5-bis(benzyloxy)-4-(2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy)pentanal O-methyloxime in the form of a colorless oily product.
