Reaction Steps

To a solution of 17-ethyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-hydroxy-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.04,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone (150 mg in 2 ml methylene chloride) was added disopropylethylamine (99.4 μl) followed by benzyl chloromethyl ether (34.2 μl neat) and the mixture stirred at room temperature. After 4 hours, the reaction was quenched by the addition of saturated sodium bicarbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×20 ml). The combined organics were washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. Purification of the concentrate by flash chromatography on silica gel (ethyl acetate:hexane (1:2)+1% methanol) gave the title compound (92 mg).
