Potassium Carbonate → HCID 44819339, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the product from step 4 (3.47 g, 10.2 mmol) in DMF (46.0 mL) was added potassium carbonate (2.85 g, 20.6 mmol) and methyl 4-bromobutyrate (1.48 mL, 12.9 mmol). The resulting suspension was stirred at ambient temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and ethyl acetate. The crude residue was extracted into ethyl acetate. The organic portion was washed with water, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using hexane/EtOAc (gradient system) to give the title compound (2.30 g, 63%) as a yellow oil.
