Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of Example 122I (1.35 g, 5.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 mL) at room temperature was treated with carbon tetrabromide (1.82 g, 5.5 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (2.88 g, 11 mmol), stirred for 1 hour, treated with hexanes (50mL), and filtered through silica gel (50 g). The solution was rinsed with 1:1 water/dichloromethane, separated, and the organic phase was concentrated. The concentrate was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel with 2-10% ethyl acetate/hexanes to provide the desired product.
