Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 654 mg (1.44 mM) of (3R,6R,7S) 3,7-dibenzyloxy-1,1-dimethoxydodeca-4-yn-6-ol [3b] described above in 10 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran was dropwise added at 0° C. to a suspension of 115.7 mg (3.02 mM) of lithium aluminum hydride in 5 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, the mixture was stirred for 18 minutes under reflux. After completion of the reaction, ethyl acetate, ethanol, water and 0.1N hydrochloric acid were added in sequence. Then, the aqueous phase was extracted with diethyl ether 3 times. The extracts were combined and washed with saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and 538 mg (1.18 mM) of (3R,6R,7S) 3,7-dibenzyloxy-1,1-dimethoxydodeca-4-en-6-ol [5] was obtained from the fraction eluted with diethyl ether:hexane=1:3. Yield, 82%.
