Reaction Steps

A solution of 2N Me3Al in hexanes (0.91 ml, 1.82 mmol) was added slowly to a solution of 0.16 ml (1.8 mmol) of morpholine in 4 ml CH2Cl2. After stirring for 15 min, a solution of 0.5 g (1.5 mmol) of ethyl 4-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-2-chloro-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate (Intermediate 218) in 4 ml CH2Cl2 was added. The solution was heated at 80° C. in a microwave reactor for 1 hour before pouring into dilute aqueous HCl. The mixture was extracted 3 times with CH2Cl2, which was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (100% CH2Cl2 followed by gradient elution to 30% EtOAc in CH2Cl2 to give 315 mg of product. MS (ES) (MH+): 377 for C15H25ClN2O3SSi; NMR (d6-DMSO): 0.1 (s, 6H), 0.9 (s, 9H), 3.6 (m, 4H), 3.7 (m, 4H), 4.1 (q, 2H), 4.75 (s, 2H).
