Reaction Steps

Methoxymethyl ether 6 (0.0172 g, 0.045 mmol) was dissolved in 1.5 mL dry dimethylformamide (DMF). Ground K2CO3 (0.0186 g, 0.135 mmol) was added, followed by allyl bromide (0.0077 mL, 0.09 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, then diluted with 100 mL of ethylacetate, washed with saturated NH4Cl solution, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to give crude 10. The crude product 10 was chromatographed on silica gel, eluting with ethylacetate and hexanes to give white solid allyl, methoxymethyl diether 10: (0.0063 g, 33%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 9.1 (dd, 1H), 8.8 (dd, 1H), 7.6 (dd, 1H), 7.5 (dd, 2H), 7.0 (t, 2H), 6.1 (m, 1H), 5.8 (s, 2H),5.5 (d, 1H), 5.3 (d, 1H), 5.1 (d, 2H), 4.8 (s, 2H). MS: 423 (M+1); 445 (M+23).
