Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2.04 g (5.37 mmol) of 2D was added 30 mL of anhydrous methanol, and ammonia gas was passed through the solution for 1 hour at room temperature. The mixture was concentrated to dryness and the residue purified by silica gel column chromatography using 30% hexane in ethyl acetate to give 1.8 g (5.13 mmol, 96%) of 2E as a colorless gum (M+Na, 373).
