Ammonium Chloride → {1-Cyano-3-ethyl-5-[6-methoxy-7-methyl-3-oxo-4-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxy)-1,3-dihydro-isobenzofuran-5-yl]-pent-3-enyl}-phosphonic Acid Diethyl Ester

Reaction Steps

To a solution of diethyl cyanomethylphosphonate (233 mg, 1.32 mmol) in THF (1 mL) was added a THF solution of sodium bis(trimethysilyl)amide (1.0 M, 1.21 mL, 1.21 mmol). After stirring for 30 minutes, the solution was added dropwise to a solution of 6-(3-bromomethyl-pent-2-enyl)-5-methoxy-4-methyl-7-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxy)-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one (100 mg, 0.22 mmol) in THF (1 mL). The resulting mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature overnight before saturated aqueous ammonium chloride was added. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC, affording 51 mg (42%) of the desired product. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 0.04 (s, 9H), 1.07 (t,3H), 1.24 (dd, 2H, J=7, 8 Hz), 1.36 (t, 6H), 2.12 (m, 1H), 2.18 (s, 3H), 2.35-2.47 (m, 2H), 2.67 (m,1H), 3.00-3.14 (m, 1H), 3.44 (d, J=7.2, 2H), 3.79 (s, 3H), 4.12-4.37 (m, 6H), 5.13 (s, 2H), 5.38 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 1H) ppm; 31P (121.4 MHz, CDCl3) δ 18.26 ppm; MS (m/z) 574 [M+Na]+.
