Triethylamine → (1S,4aS,6S,7R,7aR)-6,7-epoxy-1,4a,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-7-methyl-1-(methylcarbamoyloxy)cyclopenta[c]-pyrane-4-carboxylic acid geranyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.5 ml of triethylamine and 0.45 ml of diethylchlorophosphate were added to a dichloromethane solution containing 331 mg of (1S,4aS,6S,7R,7aR)-6,7-epoxy-1,4a,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-7-methyl-1-(methylcarbamoyloxy) cyclopenta [c]-pyrane-4-carboxylic acid described in Example 1. After stirring for 30 minutes at room temperature, 0.42 ml of geraniol and 17 mg of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (to be abbreviated as DMAP) were added followed by stirring for 5 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then extracted with dichloromethane. After washing the organic phase with dilute hydrochloric acid, saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and brine, it was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography to obtain a colorless oil from the hexane-ethyl acetate eluate in the form of (1S,4aS,6S,7R,7aR)-6,7-epoxy-1,4a,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-7-methyl-1-(methylcarbamoyloxy) cyclopenta [c]-pyrane-4-carboxylic acid geranyl ester (280 mg, yield: 50%). The physicochemical properties of this compound are described in Table 2, Compound No. 6.
