1,3-Dioxolane-4-methanol, 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-, 4-methanesulfonate, (2R,4R)-rel

The methanesulfonate (mesylate) group acts as a good leaving group, allowing nucleophilic substitution with the appropriate piperazine-containing side chain. This reaction forms the key C–O linkage, helping construct the final antifungal drug molecule, Itraconazole. 1,3-Dioxolane-4-methanol, 2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-, 4-methanesulfonate, (2R,4R)-rel- is an important activated intermediate in the synthesis of Itraconazole.
