Reaktionsschritte

The 2′-methoxy-4′-(thien-2-yl)acetophenone (0.30 g, 1.3 mmol) from Ex-57A and 3,4-difluorobenzaldehyde 0.19 g, 1.3 mmol) were mixed in tetrahydrofuran (THF, 10 mL). Cesium carbonate (1.2 g, 3.9 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at reflux overnight. Upon cooling to room temperature, the mixture was filtered, the filtrate was treated with 0.5 M HCl, and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic phase was dried and evaporated. Silica gel chromatography gave 0.32 g (69%) of the desired 3-(3,4-difluorophenyl)-1-[2-methoxy-4-(thien-2-yl)phenyl]-2-propen-1-one product, m.p. 73-79° C. 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 7.70 (d, 1H), 7.25-7.40 (m, 2H), 6.98-7.15 (m, 7H), 6.49 (d, 1H), 3.89 (s, 3H).
