Sodium hydride → HCID 67358808, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (0.723 g, 18.07 mmol) was suspended in 60 ml of DMF and cooled in an ice bath. Ethyl 2-(5-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)methyl)-4-((2R,6R)-2,6-dimethylmorpholino)-2,3-difluorophenyl)-2-(hydroxyimino)acetate (Intermediate 166, 8.827 g, 14.45 mmol) was dissolved in 30 ml of DMF and added to the reaction flask. The ice bath was removed and the reaction stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. LCMS analysis indicated that the reaction was incomplete, so an additional 100 mg of NaH was added and the reaction stirred for 30 minutes. LCMS analysis indicated that the reaction was incomplete, so an additional 100 mg of NaH was added and the reaction stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction was cooled in an ice bath and quenched drop wise with 5 ml of saturated NH4Cl. The reaction was diluted with water and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined, washed 5× with brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give an oil. The oil was purified by silica gel column chromatography using a gradient of hexanes to ethyl acetate. Fractions were combined and concentrated to give the title compound (5.156 g, 8.73 mmol, 60.4%).
