Reaction Steps

Dissolve 4-(chloromethyl)-2-methyl-thiazole (350 mg, 2.37 mmol) and azidotrimethylsilane (315 μL, 2.37 mmol) in anhydrous THF (1 mL) under nitrogen. Add a 1M solution of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (3.6 mL, 3.56 mmol) in THF and stir at ambient temperature overnight. Pour the reaction mixture into water (10 mL), extract with ethyl ether (3×2 mL), wash the organic extra with brine, dry over MgSO4, filter, and evaporate. Purify by chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane/EtOAc (9:1) to give the desired intermediate as a colorless oil (165 mg, 45%).
