Reaction Steps

To 29.0 g (0.1 mol) of di-tert-butyl 2-hydroxypropane-1,3-diyldicarbamate and 17.0 g (0.25 mol) of imidazole in 200 ml DMF at 0° C., was added 18.09 g (0.12 mol) of t-butyldimethylsilylchloride (TBDSMCl) in portions. The reaction was warmed up to RT and stirred for 2 hours. To this mixture was added 400 ml ether and 400 ml brine. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with 400 ml ether. The combined organic layer was dried and concentrated to give 35 g of di-tert-butyl 2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)propane-1,3-diyldicarbamate (86% yield).
