Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of [(2S)-2-[(3aR,5S,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl]-2-hydroxy-ethyl] 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (compound 6a, 3.2 g, 8.9 mmol) in methanol (50 mL) was added K2CO3 (5.4 g, 40 mmol). After being stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, the resulting solution was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 1:10 EtOAc in petroleum ether) to afford 1.62 g of (1S)-1-[(3aR,5S,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydrofuro[2,3-d][1,3]dioxol-5-yl]-2-methoxy-ethanol (compound 21b) as a colorless oil.
