Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of the compound (1.15 g) obtained in Example 63, diethyl ether (6 ml) and methanol (14 ml), a solution of trimethylsilyldiazomethane in n-hexane (2.0 M, 7.4 ml) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the titled compound quantitatively.
