Reaction Steps

To a solution of rac-(4R,5S,6S)-1-benzyloxy-5,6-dihydroxy-1-azaspiro[3.5]nona-8-ene-2,7-dione (2) (123 mg, 0.425 mmol) and imidazole (35 mg, 0.510 mmol) in DMF (0.6 ml) was added at 0° C. a solution of tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (77 mg, 0.510 mmol) in DMF (1.2 ml). After 12 h at room temperature, the reaction was quenched with H2O (3 ml) and the mixture extracted with AcOEt (3×5 ml). The combined extracts were washed with saturated aqueous CuSO4 solution (2×10 ml) and brine (2×10 ml), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane-AcOEt, 5:2) to give rac-(4R,5S,6S)-1-benzyloxy-6-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy-5-hydroxy-1-azaspiro[3.5]nona-8-ene-2,7-dione (3) as a white solid (133 mg, 78%).
