Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S,3S,4R,5S)-3,4,5-tris-benzyloxy-2-[4-chloro-3-(4-ethoxy-benzyl)-phenyl]-6-methylene-tetrahydro-pyran (150 mg, 0.22 mmole) in dry diethyl ether (3 mL), 1.0M diethylzinc in hexane (1.2 mL, 1.2 mmole), diiodomethane (0.1 mL, 1.2 mmole) was added at room temperature and stirred at 40° C. in sealed vessel for 8 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with water (20 mL) and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (3 ml) and extracted with DCM (2×30 mL). The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (2% ethyl acetate in hexane) to furnish 105 mg of (5S,6S,7R,8S)-6,7,8-tris-benzyloxy-5-[4-chloro-3-(4-ethoxy-benzyl)-phenyl]-4-oxa-spiro[2.5]octane.
