Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2.12 g of 1,3-thiazol-5-ylmethanol in 48 ml of dichloromethane were added 5.2 ml of tert-butyl (chloro)diphenylsilane and 2.5 g of imidazole at 0° C., followed by stirring at room temperature for 15 hours. To the reaction mixture was added water, and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was then evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 6.47 g of 5-({[tert-butyl (diphenyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-1,3-thiazole.
