Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 22882495, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

15.4 ml of triisopropylsilyl triflate are added to a solution of 8.7 g of (R)-4-bromo-3-methylbutan-1-ol in 320 ml of methylene chloride at 0° C., and 6.6 ml of 2,6-lutidine are then added in the course of 30 min. The reaction mixture is subsequently poured onto 100 ml of ice-water and the aqueous phase is acidified by addition of 2N hydrochloric acid (pH 3). It is extracted with methylene chloride and the organic phase is washed with a 5% sodium bicarbonate solution and saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulfate. After purification of the crude product by FC over 200 g of silica gel (mobile phase J), the title compound is obtained: Rf (J)=0.48.
