methyl 2-butoxyacetate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: In analogy to the procedure described in example 125 a], butoxy-acetic acid methyl ester (V. Franzen, L. Fikentscher, Ann. 1958, 617, 1-10) was deprotonated with lithium diisopropylamide and treated with 4-benzyloxy-2-methyl-benzaldehyde in tetrahydrofuran at −78° C. for 3 h to obtain 3-(4-benzyloxy-2-methyl-phenyl)-2-butoxy-3-hydroxy-propionic acid methyl ester as a mixture of two diastereomeric racemates as yellow liquid.

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
