Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-hydroxy-1-{4-[(1S)-1-(hydroxymethyl)-3-methylbutylcarbamoyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}azetidine (820 mg, 2.74 mmol) (obtained as described in Reference Example 37(3)) in dimethylformamide (41 ml) were added t-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (495 mg, 3.29 mmol) and imidazole (224 mg, 3.29 mmol) in an ice bath, and then the reaction mixture was stirred in the ice bath overnight. After checking the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and 10% aqueous sodium chloride solution. The obtained organic layer was washed successively with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and 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 n-hexane:ethyl acetate (2:1→1:2) as the eluant to afford 1-{4-[(1S)-1-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxymethyl)-3-methylbutylcarbamoyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}-3-hydroxyazetidine (731 mg, yield 65%) as a pale yellow oil.
