Methyl morpholine oxide → HCID 86232889, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution (20 mL) of [2-fluoro-5-phenyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]methanol (330 mg) in acetonitrile were added tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (53 mg), N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (270 mg) and molecular sieves 4A powder (500 mg), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, filtered through celite, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=19:1→4:1) to give the title compound as a colorless oil (yield 110 mg, 34%).
