Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-t-butyldiphenylsilyloxy-1-{4-[2-(t-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)ethylcarbamoyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}azetidine (1.68 g, 2.33 mmol) (obtained as described in Reference Example 33(2)) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (75 ml) was added a solution of 1.0M tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran (5.6 ml, 5.6 mmol) in an ice bath, and the mixture was stirred in the ice bath for 1 hour. After checking the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using ethyl acetate:methanol (10:1) as the eluant to afford 3-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxyethylcarbamoyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)azetidine (481.2 mg, yield 85%) as a white solid.
