Reaction Steps

4,5α-Epoxy-3-methoxymethoxy-17-methyl-morphinan-7-en-6α-ol (2.0 g, 6.1 mmol) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.8 g, 6.5 mmol) were dissolved in absolute CH2Cl2 (20 ml) and methyl glutarate chloride (1.0 g, 6.08 mmol) were added dropwise whilst cooling with ice and the mixture was stirred for 2 hours at this temperature. The reaction mixture was poured onto water (50 ml), the organic phase was washed twice more with 30 ml of water and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was evaporated off and the residue was separated off by flash chromatography (CH2Cl2 /MeOH 9/1).
