Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

E1 (5.0 g 20.39 mmol) was dissolved in THF (45 mL) and cooled to −78° C. LHMDS (1 M in hexane/ethylbenzene) (40.8 mL, 40.8 mmol) was added in 30 minutes and the solution was stirred for 35 min at −78° C. (2-(Chloromethoxy)ethyl)trimethylsilane (10.02 mL, 56.5 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated NH4Cl and extracted twice with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (heptane:EtOAc=100:0 to 70:30) yielding the title compound (6.09 g, 80%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, 300K): δ 0.00 (3H, s), 0.92 (2H, t, J=7.5 Hz), 1.47 (9H, s), 3.02 (2H, d, J=13.3 Hz), 3.55 (4H, m), 3.78 (3H, s), 3.83 (3H, m), 4.34 (1H, d, J=13.3 Hz). MS (ES) C17H33NO6Si requires: 375. found: 398.2 [M+Na]+.
