p-Toluenesulfonic acid → HCID 86749609, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 17-ethyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-(6'"-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxynaphth-2-yloxy)-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.04,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone (73 mg, 0.07 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (2 mL) was added a solution of p-toluenesulfonic acid in methanol (2 mL, 10% solution). The flask was capped and the mixture stirred 4 hours. The reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted 4× with CH2Cl2. The organic extracts were combined and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. The mixture was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The product was isolated by preparative TLC on silica gel (eluted with 2:1 hexanes/acetone) to afford 44.2 mg of 17-ethyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-(6'"-hydroxynaphth-2-yloxy)-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.04,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone (Rf =0.23). (1H NMR and mass spectral analysis were consistent with the desired structure).
