Diazomethane → HCID 53637132, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-S-difluoromethylhomocysteine in diethyl ether (1 mL) was added a solution of diazomethane in ether until a faint yellow color persisted. The excess reagent was quenched by addition of glacial acetic acid, and the reaction was concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with 20% EtOAc/hexane to afford a colorless oil (400 mg).
