Reaction Steps

Triphenyl phosphine (14.4 g, 55 mmol) was dissolved in THF and cooled to 0° C. under nitrogen. Di-tertbutyl azodicarboxylate (13.7 g, 59.5 mmol) was added slowly and the reaction was stirred for 30 mins. Then the alcohol (20 g, 45.8 mmol) was added dropwise and allowed to stir for 10 mins, then diphenyl phosphorylazide (15.1 g, 55 mmol) was added and allowed to stir overnight, warming to ambient temperature. The reaction was evaporated to dryness in vacuo and directly loaded onto a silica gel column and eluted with 0-10% ethyl acetate/hexane gradient to provide (2S)-2-azidoundecyl(9Z,12Z)-octadeca-9,12-dien-1-yl ether which was carried directly into the next reaction without characterization.
