Triphenylphosphine → 3-Triphenylmethyl-5-([4-[2-(4-methanesulfonyloxyphenyl)ethoxy]phenyl]methyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.28 g (0.623 mmole) 3-triphenylmethyl-5-([4-hydroxyphenyl]methyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione was under argon atmosphere added to a cooled solution of 0.148 g (0.685 mmole) 2-[4-(methylsulfonyloxy)phenyl]-1-ethanol, 0.173 g (0.685 mmole) 1,1′-(azodicarbonyl)-dipiperidine and 0.18 g (0.685 mmole) triphenylphosphine in 6 ml dichloromethane. After stirring for 3 hours the reaction mixture was filtered and the crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel using heptane:ethyl acetate (2:2) as eluent to give 0.215 g (yield 53%) of 3-triphenylmethyl-5-([4-[2-(4-methanesulfonyloxyphenyl)ethoxy]phenyl]methyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione.
