Reaction Steps

To a dimethylsulfoxide (48 ml) solution of the ((4R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methanol (4.87 g, 39.7 mmol), sodium hydride, in oil (1.73 g, 39.6 mmol as the content was regarded as 55%) was added at room temperature. To the mixture, 4-chloro-2,3-dimethylpyridine 1-oxide (4.8 g, 30.5 mmol) was added, the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hours. After cooled to room temperature, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (NH silica gel, elution solvent: ethyl acetate/methanol) to obtain the title compound (10.5 g, yield: 136%) as a yellow oil.
