How can I qualify to defer paying tax on my capital gain from selling stock?

I have sold stock and now I want to invest half of the proceeds in OZs that would also be beneficial for my taxes. What are my options? How fast do I need to invest?

    You need to invest within 180 days of the sale of the stock, but take into account the extensions under Notice 2020-39.
