Reaction Conditions:
with lithium hexamethyldisilazane in neat (no solvent) at 0 - 20; for 3 h;
Steps:
2.2. General procedure for transesterification reactions
General procedure: Ester (1 mmol) and alcohol (3 mmol) were added in a round bottom flask, followed by the addition of base LiHMDS (2 mmol) at 0 °C. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for about 3 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After completion of the reaction, ethyl acetate was added to the reaction mixture and washed with water three times. The ethyl acetate layer was evaporated on the rota evaporator, and the crude products were purified by column chromatography in pet ether.
