Triethylamine → 4-[2-(Tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-ethyl]-2-fluoro-phenol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(4-benzyloxy-3-fluoro-phenyl)-ethanol (9.2 g, 37.4 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (150 mL) and TBDMS-Cl (5.6 g, 37.4 mmol), was added Et3N (5.2 mmol, 37.4 mmol) portionwise at 0° C. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2 hours at the same temperature. The reaction was washed with H2O (150 mL). The CH2Cl2 was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under vacuum. To a solution of the residue in MeOH (100 mL), was Pd/C (150 mg) added. The reaction was stirred under H2 (1 atm) for 5 hours. The solid material was filtrated off and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to afford the desired compound (8.9 g, 88.3%) as a grayish solid. The crude compound was used for the next step without further purification. 1H NMR (400 Mz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.53 (s, 1H), 6.99˜6.96 (m, 1H), 6.83˜6.81 (m, 2H), 3.70 (t, 2H), 2.63 (t, 2H), 0.83 (s, 9H), 0.01 (s, 6H).
