Imidazole → HCID 11161185, compound

The hydroxy lactone of Example 8 (6.0 g, 42.2 mmol) was dissolved in dry dimethylformamide (10 ml) under nitrogen. Imidazole (4.78 g, 70.2 mmol) and then tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (7.05 g, 46.80 mmol) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and then partitioned between water (50 ml) and heptane (2×30 ml). The heptane extracts were dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give the crude product (10.5 g). This was crystallised from heptane (40 ml) at −15° C. to give the title compound as a white solid (7.60 g, 29.6 mmol, 70%); m.p. 48° C. (onset by DSC); Found: C, 61.1; H, 9.5.
