Participants

Reaction Steps

(4S)-2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-ylmethanol (362 mg, 2.74 mM) was dissolved in pyridine (9 ml), stirred at ambient temperature, and treated in portions with 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate (552 mg, 2.74 mM). After 6 hours, solvent was evaporated, the residue redissolved in ethyl acetate (15 ml), washed with water (15 ml), sodium bicarbonate solution (15 ml), brine (15 ml), and dried (magnesium sulfate). Removal of the solvent gave the product as an oil sufficiently pure for further use (858 mg).
