Procedure

Pantothenic acid (7) (4.6 g, 2.24×10−2 mols) was dissolved in dry DCM (30 mL). Camphor sulfonic acid (0.52 g, 2.24×10−3 mols) and p-anisaldehyde-dimethoxy-acetal (3.82 mL, 2.24×10−2 mols) were added to the reaction mixture. The reaction was stirred overnight at room temperature with a drying tube. The crude reaction product was concentrated and purified silica gel chromatography (6:1 hexane:EtOAC-EtOAc) to yield a white solid (8A1) (3.8 g, 51% yield). mp=135-136° C. 1HNMR (400 MHz, DMSO) 0.93 (s, 3H), 0.99 (s, 3H), 2.38 (t, 2H, J=6.8 Hz), 3.25 (m, 1H), 3.34 (m, 1H), 3.5.9 (d, 1H, J=10.8 Hz), 3.62 (d, H, J=10.8 Hz), 3.74 (s, 3H), 4.07 (s, 1H), 5.50 (s, 1H), 6.91 (d, 2H, J=8.8 Hz), 7.41 (d, 2H, J=8.8 Hz). 13C-NMR (400 Mz, DMSO) 19.7, 22.2, 33.2, 34.4, 34.9, 55.8, 78.0, 83.8, 101.1, 114.0, 128.4, 131.1, 160.3, 168.9, 173.8.
