({(1S,2S,4R)-4-azido-2-[(benzyloxy)methyl]cyclopentyl}-oxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane → (1R,3S,4S)-3-[(benzyloxy)methyl]-4-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)-silyl]oxy}cyclopentanamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of ({(1S,2S,4R)-4-azido-2-[(benzyloxy)methyl]cyclopentyl}-oxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane (2.20 g, 0.00608 mol) and 10% Pd/C (0.16 g, 0.00015 mol) in EtOAc (23.9 mL) was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen overnight. The reaction was purged with nitrogen and the mixture filtered through celite with EtOAc. The filtrate was concentrated to obtain 2.01 g (98%) of the title compound.
