Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-(5-fluoro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-7-yl)-4-methyl-2-(5-methylsulfanyl-1H-indol-2-ylmethyl)pentan-2-ol (25 mg, 0.053 mmol) in 10 mL of methanol was added sodium periodate (150 mg, 0.70 mmol). After 1 hour, the mixture was diluted with brine and extracted with three 10 mL portions of ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with three 7 mL portions of brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude residue was purified by preparative TLC on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate to afford 19.8 mg (77% yield) of the title compound.
