Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-{[(1R,3S,4S)-3-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}-4-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)cyclopentyl]oxy}-6-chloropyrimidine (0.200 g, 0.423 mmol) and 1-naphthalenemethanol (0.140 g, 0.888 mmol) in DMF (1 mL) was added sodium hydride (0.0355 g, 0.888 mmol) and stirred for 3 h. The mixture was diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (0 to 20% EtOAc/hexanes) to afford the title compound (0.139 g, 55%).
