Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (3R,4S,5S,6R)-2-[3-(4-Benzyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]oxazin-6-ylmethyl)-4-isopropyl-phenyl]-6-hydroxymethyl-2-methoxy-tetrahydro-pyran-3,4,5-triol (600 mg, 1.09 mmol) in acetonitrile-dichloroethane mixture (1:1 mixture, 10 mL) was added triethylsilane (0.7 mL, 4.4 mmol) and boron trifluoride diethyletharate complex (0.27 mL, 2.18 mmol) at −20° C. After stirring for 4 h at 0° C., the reaction was quenched with aq. saturated NaHCO3 solution (8 mL). The volatiles were evaporated under reduced pressure; the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×20 mL). The organic layers were combined and washed with brine (5 mL), dried over sodium sulphate, concentrated to a residuer which was purified by column chromatography to furnish (2S,3R,4R,5S,6R)-2-[3-(4-Benzyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]oxazin-6-ylmethyl)-4-isopropyl-phenyl]-6-hydroxymethyl-tetrahydro-pyran-3,4,5-triol (520 mg).
