Triphenylphosphine → 7-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yloxy)methyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano(3,2-c)pyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 0.42 g of 5-(3-hydroxypropyl)-2-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yloxy)methyl)pyridin-4(1H)-one in 8 mL of tetrahydrofuran, 0.54 g of triphenylphosphine and 0.89 g of a 40% diethyl azodicarboxylate/toluene solution were added, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 7-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yloxy)methyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano(3,2-c)pyridine as a brown oily substance.
