Reaction Steps

In a similar manner to Step 3 of Example 16, 4-methoxymethoxy-5-dimethoxymethyl-3-hydroxy-2-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)isoindolinone (3.34 g, 8.31 mmol) was dissolved in THF (100 mL), and the solution was treated with TMEDA (4.00 mL, 27.0 mmol), sec-butyl lithium-hexane solution (1.03 mol/L, 25.8 mL, 26.6 mmol) and iodine (3.16 g, 12.5 mmol), followed by purification by slurry using methanol and diisopropylether to obtain 4-methoxymethoxy-5-dimethoxymethyl-3-hydroxy-7-iodo-2-(1-methyl-1-phenylethyl)isoindolinone (2.24 g, yield 51%).
