Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → HCID 22243076, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-[4-(benzoylaminomethyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-3-t-butyldiphenylsilyloxyazetidine (1.49 g, 2.82 mmol) (obtained as described in Reference Example 64(1)) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (75 ml) was added a 1.0 M solution of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran (3.39 ml, 3.39 mmol) in an ice bath and the mixture was stirred in an ice bath for 1 hour. After checking the completion of the reaction, the 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 magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using hexane:ethyl acetate (1:2) ethyl acetate:methanol (9:1) as the eluant to afford 1-[4-(benzoylaminomethyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-3-hydroxyazetidine (582 mg, yield 71%) as a white solid.
