Participants

Reaction Steps

754 mg of (3R,4R)-4-(Biphenyl-4-ylcarbonyloxy)-3-[4-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-benzoylamino]-azepane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester were dissolved in 10 ml tetrahydrofuran and 147 mg of tetrabutylammoniumfluoride trihydrate were added at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was stirred for two hours at room temperature. 2.5 ml of a saturated solution of sodium chloride and 2.5 ml of an aqueous 1 molar solution of citric acid were added. The organic layer was concentrated under vacuo diluted with ethyl acetate then washed with 5 ml of a saturated solution of sodium chloride dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated. The crude compound was purified on silica gel (dichloromethane:ethylacetate 1:1) to yield 551 mg (89% yield) of (3R,4R)-4-(Biphenyl-4-ylcarbonyloxy)-3-(4-hydroxy-benzoylamino)-azepane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester.
