a solution of compound 6
(337 mg, 1.1 mmol) in anhydrous pyridine (6 ml) was added
trimethylchlorosilane (1.0 ml, 7.7 mmol). After the reaction
mixture was stirred for 30 min, isobutyryl chloride (0.4 ml,
3.7 mmol) was added and the stirring was continued for another
3 h. The reaction was then cooled in an ice bath and H2O (1.2 ml)
was added. After 5 min 25% aq. NH3 (1.0 ml) was added and the
reaction was stirred for 20 min at r.t. The mixture was evaporated
and co-evaporated twice with MeOH. The resulting residue was
applied to FC (silica gel, column 2 × 12 cm, CH2Cl2–MeOH, 9 :
