Ethyl bromoacetate → HCID 14988926, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-[3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-methyloxiranyl]-5-methoxy-6-(morpholinocarbonyloxy)-1-oxaspiro[2,5]octane (76.2 mg) in a mixture of toluene (2 ml) and N,N-dimethylformamide (1 ml) was added sodium hydride (20.5 mg) in one portion under ice cooling. The mixture was stirred for half an hour at the same temperature and ethyl bromoacetate (68.5 mg) was added. After stirred for 3 hours at ambient temperature, the reaction mixture was quenched with aqueous saturated ammonium chloride solution (2 ml). The organic layer was washed with brine, dried, and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (diethyl ether) to give 4-[3-(2-ethoxycarbonylmethoxyethyl)-2-methyloxiranyl]-5-methoxy-6-(morpholinocarbonyloxy)-1-oxaspiro[2,5]octane (66.9 mg).
