Benzyl chloroformate → Tert-butyl 6-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-(2-formylfuran-3-yl)-2-hydroxybenzoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Benzyl chloroformate (0.528 g) was added to a stirred solution of tert-butyl 6-amino-3-(2-formylfuran-3-yl)-2-hydroxybenzoate (Intermediate 61, 0.854 g) in diethyl ether (20 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. A further amount of benzyl chloroformate (1.056 g) was added and the resultant mixture stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by chromatography on silica, eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane, with a gradient of 5-15% to give tert-butyl 6-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-(2-formylfuran-3-yl)-2-hydroxybenzoate (0.588 g) as a yellow solid.
