Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

The compound of Example 3D (0.58 g, 2.7 mmol) was dissolved in 4 mL of dichloromethane and 2 mL of pyridine; the solution was cooled to 0° C., and 0.39 mL of pivaloyl chloride was added dropwise over 5 minutes. The resultant mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2.5 hours, then it was quenched with water, and the mixture was concentrated in vacuo with the bath maintained below ambient temperature. The crude material was partitioned between ether and 0.5 N aqueous HCl; the organic phase was washed with 0.5 N aqueous HCl, then brine, and dried over Na2SO4. The solvents were removed in vacuo; the residue (0.96 g) was carried forward without further purification.
