Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.0 g (2.865 mmol) of the product of Example 321 in 7.5 mL of DMF was added 0.143 g (3.582 mmol) of 60% sodium hydride followed by 0.74 mL (4.30 mmol) of n-octyl bromide. The reaction was stirred overnight at room temperature then diluted with ether, washed with water, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was chromatographed on silica gel eluting with EtOAc/hexanes (1:3) to provide 0.592 g (49%) of the product as a white solid. Electrospray Mass Spec: 462.1 (M+H)+.
