p-Toluenesulfonic acid → HCID 15107107, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

983 mg of (3RS,4S)-4-(benzyloxycarbonyl)amino-5-cyclohexylpentene-3-ol was dissolved in 5 ml of dichloromethane, and 4 ml of 2,2-dimethoxypropane and 30 mg of dry p-toluenesulfonic acid were added thereto. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Then, 100 ml of ethyl acetate was added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was washed with a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate aqueous solution and with a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. Then, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate=20/1) to obtain 967 mg of (4S,5RS)-3-benzyloxycarbonyl-4-cyclohexylmethyl-5-ethenyl-2,2-dimethyloxazolidine as colorless oily substance.
