Triphenylphosphine → HCID 86587129, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a THF solution (10 mL) of methyl 2-({[4-(2-butynyloxy)phenyl]sulfonyl}amino)-3-hydroxypropanoate (0.33 g, 1 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (0.32 g, 1.2 mmol), diethylazodicarboxylate (0.19 mL, 1.2 mmol) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After removing the solvent, the residue was extracted with ether. The organic layer was washed with 1N NaHCO3, water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane:ethyl acetate (1:1) to provide 0.18 g of 1-({[4-(2-butynyloxy)phenyl]sulfonyl}-2-aziridinecarboxylic acid, methyl ester. Yield 58.0%. Electrospray Mass Spec 310.2(M+H)+.
