Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl{(3S)-6-[(4′-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}-3′-chloro-2′,6′-dimethylbiphenyl-3-yl)methoxy]-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-3-yl}acetate (2.01 g, 3.54 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added 1 M tetrabutylammonium fluoride tetrahydrofuran solution (3.9 mL, 3.9 mmol) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 3 hr under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, water was added to the residue, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=10:90-50:50) to give the title compound (1.41 g, yield 88%) as a colorless oil.
