Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 17-ethyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-(3'"-dioxolanylphenyloxy)-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.04,9 ]-octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone (20 mg in 1 ml methylene chloride) was added 1 ml of a 2.2% solution of p-toluensulfonic acid in methanol and the mixture stirred at room temperature. After 20 minutes the reaction was quenched by the addition of 2 ml saturated sodium bicarbonate, extracted with methylene chloride and washed with brine. The combined organics were dried over magnesium sulfate and the concentrate purified by preparative tlc on silica gel (2:1, hexane/acetone) to give the title compound (6 mg).
