Triethylamine → 3-(4(1-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4(S)-ylcarbonyl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyrid-4-yl)-3,5-difluorophenyl)-5(R)-methanesulfonyloxymethyloxazolidin-2-one

Reaction Steps

3-(4-(1-(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4(S)-ylcarbonyl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyrid-4-yl)-3,5-difluorophenyl)-5(R)-hydroxymethyloxazolidin-2-one (2.19 g, 5 mM) was dissolved in dry dichloromethane (40 ml) under nitrogen at 0°, and treated with triethylamine (0.81 g, 8 mM). Methanesulfonyl chloride (0.687 g, 6 mM) was added, and stirring continued for 2 hours, allowing the temperature to rise to ambient. Aqueous sodium bicarbonate (5%, 20 ml) was added, and stirring continued for 10 minutes. The organic phase was separated, dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered, and evaporated to dryness. The resulting gum was triturated with diethyl ether (50 ml) and solid filtered to give the title compound (2.4 g).
