Acetic Acid → 6-[2-(Tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-ethoxy]-3-chloro-2-fluoro-benzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

In a manner similar to the method described in example 52a, tert-butyl-[2-(4-chloro-3-fluoro-phenoxy)-ethoxy]-dimethyl-silane (14.3 g, 47 mmol) prepared in example 132a was reacted with lithium diisopropylamine (34 mL, 1.8 M in THF, 61 mmol), N,N-dimethyl-formamide (4.7 mL, 61 mmol) and quenched with acetic acid (14 g, 234 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran to give 6-[2-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-ethoxy]-3-chloro-2-fluoro-benzaldehyde as a white solid (Yield: 6.4 g, 41%).
