Trifluoroacetic acid → HCID 57253280, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.2 g of 1-(di-p-anisylmethyl)-3-(1-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-4-p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonylmethyl-2-azetidinone was dissolved in 20 ml of dried methylene chloride, and 0.88 g of m-dimethoxybenzene and 2.5 ml of trifluoroacetic acid were added to the solution, followed by stirring at room temperature for 4 hours. The solvent was removed by distillation, and the resulting oily residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography to obtain 1.75 g of 1-(di-p-anisylmethyl)-3-(1-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-4-carboxymethyl-2-azetidinone.
