Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (500 mg, 5.94 mmol) in THF (10 mL) was brought to −78° C. followed by the addition of tert-butyllithium (12.2 mL, 20.8 mmol, 1.7 M in pentane). The resulting yellow solution was brought to 0° C. and stirred for 15 min. The reaction was then cooled to −78° C. and tributyltin chloride (4.8 mL, 17.8 mmol) was slowly added. The reaction was monitored by TLC. Upon completion by TLC, water was added (20 mL) to the reaction. The organic phase was separated, washed with water, dried over MgSO4, concentrated and chromatographed on silica gel using hexanes (500 ml hexanes and 0.5 mL triethylamine). The title compound was obtained as a colorless oil. MS m/z: 375 (M+1).
