Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-hydroxy-1-(4-hydroxyethylcarbamoyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)azetidine (481.2 mg, 1.98 mmol) (obtained as described in Reference Example 33(3)) in dimethylformamide (24.0 ml) were added t-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (352 mg, 2.3 mmol) and imidazole (116.3 mg, 2.4 mmol) in an ice bath, and the mixture was stirred in the ice bath for 4 hours. After checking the completion of the reaction, methanol was added thereto and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using hexane:ethyl acetate (2:3) as the eluant to afford 1-{4-[2-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-ethylcarbamoyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}-3-hydroxyazetidine (531.1 mg, yield 75%) as a colorless and transparent syrup.
