(2S,4R,5R)-5-Azido-2-benzhydryl-tetrahydro-pyran-4-ol → (2S,4R,5R)-5-amino-2-benzhydryl-tetrahydro-pyran-4-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

(2S,4R,5R)-5-Azido-2-benzhydryl-tetrahydro-pyran-4-ol (0.05 g, 0.18 mmol) dissolved in methanol (20 ml) was hydrogenated in the presence of 10% Pd/C (0.006 g). The mixture was filtered through a short bed of cellite, and evaporation of the solvent gave (2S,4R,5R)-5-amino-2-benzhydryl-tetrahydro-pyran-4-ol 0.05 g (97%, [α]D=(−)66, c=1, MeOH), which was pure enough for the next reaction.
