Participants

Reaction Steps

To 4-(1-acetoxy-9-hydroxynonyl)-2-trimethylsilylfuran (0.075 g, 0.221 mmol) and pyridine (0.056 g, 0.662 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (2 ml) under argon at 0° was added dropwise acetyl chloride (0.052 g, 0.662 mmol). The mixture was warmed to room temperature, stirred for one hour, quenched with water and extracted into ethyl ether. The organic portion was washed with 10% hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate, aqueous 5% cupric sulfate solution, water, saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to an oil. Purification by flash chromatography (silica, 5 to 10% ethyl acetate/hexane) gave the desired product.
