Sodium Hydroxide → HCID 66881004, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a methanol (50 ml)-tetrahydrofuran (30 ml) mixed solvent was added the compound (4.93 g, 16.53 mmol) obtained in step D, sodium cyanoborohydride (1.35 g, 21.49 mmol) was added under ice-cooling with stirring, and acetic acid (1 ml) and methanol (10 ml) solution were added dropwise by a small amount. After the completion of the dropwise addition, the mixture was further stirred at the same temperature for 30 min. The reaction mixture was poured into diluted aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, and the mixture was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The insoluble material was filtered off, and the solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained oil was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform-methanol) to give the title compound (2.77 g, yield 56%) as a pale-yellow oil.
