1-Methylimidazole → HCID 131734116, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

5.51 g of 2,4,5-trichlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride and 2.14 mL of 1-methylimidazole were added to a solution of 6.65 g of (2R,3S)-2-hydroxy-5-(methoxyimino)pentane-1,3-diyl dibenzoate in 67 mL of acetonitrile at room temperature, and the obtained mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Thereafter, ethyl acetate and water were added to the reaction mixture. The organic layer was fractionated, and was then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure. 20 mL of ethyl acetate and 30 mL of hexane were added to the obtained residue, and a solid was then removed by filtration. After that, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure, so as to obtain 8.97 g of (2R,3S)-5-(methoxyimino)-2-(((2,4,5-trichlorophenyl)sulfonyl)oxy)pentane-1,3-diyl dibenzoate in the form of a colorless oily product.
