Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 4-((1R,3aS,5aR,5bR,7aR,11aS,11bR,13aR,13bR)-3a-amino-5a,5b,8,8,11a-pentamethyl-1-(prop-1-en-2-yl)-2,3,3a,4,5,5a,5b,6,7,7a,8,11,11a,11b,12,13,13a,13b-octadecahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]chrysen-9-yl)benzoate (20 mg, 0.037 mmol), methyl acrylate (0.013 mL, 0.147 mmol) and triethylamine (0.026 mL, 0.184 mmol) in ethanol (1 mL) was refluxed for 5 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and then concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the desired product as a yellow oil (15 mg 65%). LCMS: m/e 630.43 (M+H)+, 3.81 min (method 10).
