Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of O-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)hydroxylamine (0.36 g) in anhydrous dimethylformamide (5 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of the compound (0.80 g) obtained in Example 1, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (0.47 g) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole monohydrate (0.39 g) in anhydrous dimethylformamide (20 mL) under cooling with ice-water under nitrogen atmosphere, followed by stirring at the same temperature for twenty minutes and further stirring at room temperature for two days. After adding water, the mixture was treated with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution to be adjusted to pH 8 and was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was sequentially washed with water and brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; ethyl acetate:methanol=4:1), was crystallized from ether to yield the titled compound (620 mg) as crystals.
