Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-benzyloxy-6-hydroxy-2-(1-naphthalen-1-yl-cyclopentylmethyl)-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid [2-(tert-butyl-dimethylsilanyloxy)-ethyl]-oxetan-3-yl-amide (362) (290 mg, 0.43 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was added tetrabutylammoniumfluorid (1M in tetrahydrofuran, 1.3 mL, 13 mmol) at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h (silica TLC, ethyl acetate:hexane=1:1/SiO2/UV, Rf=0.3.) The tetrahydrofuran was removed in vacuum and the crude mass was diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and washed with water (25 mL) and brine (25 mL). The organic phase was thereafter dried and concentrated in vacuum to get a crude mass which was purified by CombiFlash using a gradient eluent mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane to obtain pure 5-benzyloxy-6-hydroxy-2-(1-naphthalen-1-yl-cyclopentylmethyl)-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (2-hydroxyethyl)-oxetan-3-yl-amide (363) (175 mg, 73%) as a white solid.
