Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Sodium azide (0.761 g) is added to a solution of 0.898 g of cis-2-(4-methanesulfonyloxy-cyclohexyl)-2-methyl-propionic acid methyl ester in 7 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. The reaction mixture is warmed to 100° C. for 16 hours. The mixture is cooled to room temperature, diluted with 20 ml of water and extracted with tert-butyl methyl ether (3×30 ml). The combined organic phases are washed with brine (20 ml), dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated by evaporation. The title compound is identified from the residue by means of flash chromatography (SiO2 60 F) based on its Rf value.
