Dimethyl Sulfoxide → (2S,3S,4S,5R,6S)-3,4,5-tribenzyloxy-6-[4-chloro-3-[[4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenyl]methyl]phenyl]-6-methoxy-tetrahydropyran-2-carbaldehyde

Reaction Steps

Oxalyl chloride (0.16 mL, 1.87 mmol) was dissolved in 5 mL dichloromethane and cooled to −78° C., followed by dropwise addition of dimethyl sulfoxide (0.2 mL, 2.88 mmol) in dichloromethane (3 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 15 minutes, before 10 mL solution of [(2R,3R,4S,5R,6S)-3,4,5-tribenzyloxy-6-[4-chloro-3-[[4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenyl]methyl]phenyl]-6-methoxy-tetrahydropyran-2-yl]methanol 7h (1.10 g, 1.44 mmol) in dichloromethane were added and stirred for 40 minutes. Then the reaction mixture was warmed and stirred for 3 hours at room temperature after triethylamine (1.0 mL, 7.21 mmol) was dropwise added. Thereafter, the reaction mixture was partitioned after 5 mL 1 M hydrochloric acid were added, the aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (10 mL×2) and the organic extracts were combined, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (2S,3S,4S,5R,6S)-3,4,5-tribenzyloxy-6-[4-chloro-3-[[4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenyl]methyl]phenyl]-6-methoxy-tetrahydropyran-2-carbaldehyde 7i (1.06 g, yellow grease), which was used directly in the next step without purification.
