Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of Example 332C (3.8 g, 23.6 mmol) and triethylamine (4.3 mL, 30.7 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 mL) was added methanesulfonyl chloride (2.2 mL, 28.3 mmol) dropwise at about 0° C. After about 30 min stirring at about 0° C., the reaction mixture was diluted with water and was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to give the above intermediate. MS (DCI/NH3): m/z 258 (M+NH4)+.
