Potassium Sodium Tartrate → HCID 59577402, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.) solution of 5-(benzothiazol-2-yloxy)-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (170 mg, 0.52 mmol) in DCM (2 mL) was added DIBALH (0.63 mL, 89 mg 0.63 mmol) and the reaction mixture was warmed (rt, 2.5 h). The reaction mixture was treated with saturated aqueous Rochelle's Salt (2 mL) and stirred (rt, 2 h). The biphasic mixture was poured into saturated aqueous NH4Cl and extracted with DCM (2×50 mL). The organic layer was dried, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography using MeOH:DCM (3-40%) to afford the title compound (55 mg, 36%). MS (ESI): mass calcd for C16H11NO3S, 297.04; m/z found, 298.1 [M+H]+.
