Abstract
A practical synthesis of 5-(chloromethyl)furo[2,3-b]pyridine (10), the side chain used to incorporate a key pharmacophore of the HIV proteas e inhibitor, L-754,394, is described. The synthesis was accomplished i n ten steps and in 15% overall yield from commercially available methy l 2-furoate.
