Abstract

A convenient and inexpensive approach for the synthesis of deuterium-labeled thiamphenicol was described. DL-threo-Thiamphenicol-methyl-d3 was prepared with high chemical purity and isotopic enrichment via a six-step process starting from 4-bromobenzaldehyde and DMSO-d6 by employing microwave-assisted copper-mediated methylthiolation and modified Wulff’s asymmetric aziridination.
