Methanesulfonic Acid → 4-(4-((3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)phenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one methanesulfonate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonic acid (445.0 mg, 4.6 mmol) was added to a solution of 4-(4-((3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)phenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one (2.01 g, 4.6 mmol) in DCM (3 ml) and diethyl ether (150 mL) at RT under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 4 h and the solids were removed by filtration. The solid was washed with 20% DCM in diethyl ether and dried under vacuo to afford 4-(4-((3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)phenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one methanesulfonate (2.1 g, 87%) as a white solid. 1H NMR: 500 MHz, DMSO-d6: δ 8.2 (s, 1H), 7.65 (d, 2H), 7.45 (s, 1H), 7.15 (d, 2H), 7.1 (d, 2H), 7.0 (d, 2H), 5.2 (s, 2H), 3.8 (s, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 2.3 (s, 3H), 1.45 (s, 6H), HPLC: (98.9%, Condition-A).
