tert-Butyl bromoacetate → HCID 11122076, compound

The title compound of Example 1A (0.5 g, 2 mmol) dissolved in THF (20 mL) was cooled to 0° under nitrogen. Potassium tert-butoxide (0.25 g, 2.2 mmol) was added all at once. After a further 20 min, tert-butyl bromoacetate (0.39 g, 2.2 mmol) was added dropwise from a syringe. The reaction mixture was stirred 16 h at room temperature. The excess base was destroyed by the addition of wet THF (2 ml) followed by the addition of H2O (40 mL) and EtOAc (40 mL). The organic phase was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude oil was purified by column chromatography (SiO2) to give the title compound (0.619 g, 85% yield) as a colorless oil: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ5.64 (broad s, 1H), 5.59 (broad s, 1H,), 3.75 (s, 6H), 3.35 (s, 2H), 3.07 (s, 2H), 1.43 (s, 9H); 13CNMR (100 MHz, CDCl3) δ169.42, 168.43, 127.16, 122.35, 81.29, 54.64, 52.91, 43.53, 37.25, 27.92.
