Diisopropylethylamine → tert-butyl (2R,3R,4S)-5-azido-3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-1-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (1.3 g, 5.2 mmol) was added to a solution of tert-butyl (4R)-4-((1R,2S)-3-azido-1-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}-2-methylpropyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidine-3-carboxylate (1.09 g, 2.6 mmol) in EtOH (15 mL). The mixture was heated under reflux for 2 days. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in DCM (25 mL), and DIPEA (0.67 mL, 3.8 mmol) was added followed by Boc2O (0.67 g, 3.1 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 h, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 0-25% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide the sub-title compound (0.56 g, 56%). LCMS calc. for C12H29N4O2Si (M+H-Boc)+: m/z=289.2. found 289.2.
