Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-[(1-diisopropylsilanyloxymethyl-2-triisopropylsilanyloxy-ethyl)-(trans-4-methyl-cyclohexanecarbonyl)-amino]-5-(4,4-dimethyl-cyclohexyl)-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (60 mg, 0.078 mmol) in THF (1 mL) was treated with HF.pyridine (0.1 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc and added to solid NaHCO3. It was stirred at room temperature for 2 h, filtered and evaporated. Pure 5-(4,4-dimethyl-cyclohexyl)-3-[(2-hydroxy-1-hydroxymethyl-ethyl)-(trans-4-methyl-cyclohexanecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester was obtained on chromatography over silica gel (EtOAc as eluent) (32 mg, 89%).
