Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (1R,3aS,5aR,5bR,7aR,9S,11aR,13aR,13bR)-9-hydroxy-5a,5b,8,8,11a-pentamethyl-1-(prop-1-en-2-yl)icosahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]chrysene-3a-carboxylic acid (1 g, 2.190 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) and toluene (5.00 mL) was added (diazomethyl)trimethylsilane (1.642 mL, 3.28 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. TLC indicated starting material was consumed and a new product was formed. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the desired product (1R,3aS,5aR,5bR,7aR,9S,11aR,13aR,13bR)-methyl 9-hydroxy-5a,5b,8,8,11a-pentamethyl-1-(prop-1-en-2-yl)icosahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]chrysene-3a-carboxylate as a white solid (1 g, 97%). 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-D6) δ ppm 0.65 (s, 3H), 0.76 (s, 3H), 0.87 (d, J=12.67 Hz, 6H), 0.94 (s, 3H), 0.96-1.63 (m, 18H), 1.65 (s, 3H), 1.72-1.87 (m, 2H), 2.03-2.16 (m, 2H), 2.85-3.09 (m, 3H), 3.60 (s, 3H), 4.26 (d, J=4.58 Hz, 1H), 4.58 (s, 1H), 4.70 (d, J=1.83 Hz, 1H).
