Reaction Steps

To a 0 C solution of Example 19 (0.100 g, 0.32 mmol) in THF (3 mL) add potassium tert-butoxide (0.090 g, 0.81 mmol) followed by methoxymethyl chloride (MOM-Cl) (0.061 mL, 0.81 mmol). Remove the ice bath and stir for 1 h at room temperature. Pour the contents into ½ satd. NaHCO3 (50 mL) and extract with Et2O (2×25 mL) and EtOAc (2×25 mL). Wash the combine organic extracts with brine (50 mL), dry over Na2SO4, and concentrate to afford a brown residue. Purify the residue by MPLC (0% to 25% to 50% EtOAc/hexanes) to afford Preparation 35 (0.102 g, 80%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.37 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.09 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 6.96 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 6.87 (dd, J=2.4, 8.8 Hz, 1H), 6.84 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 5.28 (s, 1H), 5.20 (s, 2H), 5.13 (A of AB, JAB=7.0 Hz, 1H), 5.07 (B of AB, JAB=7.0 Hz, 1H), 3.87 (m, 1H), 3.50 (s, 3H), 3.48 (s, 3H), 3.04 (br d, J=14.4 Hz, 1H), 2.79 (dd, J=6.2, 14.4 Hz, 1H), 2.46 (m, 1H), 2.21 (m, 2H), 1.62-1.79 (m, 2H).
