Methanesulfonyl chloride → HCID 54528871, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.00 g of 5-[4,7-bis(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-1-hydroxy-2-heptenyl]-2-methylthio-4-(4-phenoxybutyl)-4-trimethylsilyloxy-2-cyclopentenone obtained in Example 559 dissolved in 10 ml of dichloromethane was added under ice-cooling and stirring 497 mg of dimethylaminopyridene, and then 147 μl of methanesulfonyl chloride was added dropwise. The temperature of the mixture was gradually elevated to room temperature, and then stirred for 6 hours. Saturated aqueous potassium hydrogensulfate was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined, washed with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate and with saturated aqueous sodium chloride in the order mentioned, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtration and concentration, the concentrate was subjected to silica gel chromatography to give 644 mg (yield 66%) of low polarity isomer and 255 mg (yield 26%) of high polarity isomer of 5-[4,7-bis(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-2-heptenylidene]-2-methylthio-4-(4-phenoxybutyl)-4-trimethylsilyloxy-2-cyclopentenone.
