Reaktionsschritte

6-Methoxy-3-phenyl-1H-indene-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.5 g, 5.10 mmol) prepared in Preparation Example 1 was dissolved in dichloromethane (80 mL), and N-bromosuccinimide (1.09 g, 6.12 mmol) and 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (0.08 mg, 0.51 mmol) were added thereto. The mixture was stirred for 2 hrs at RT under the irradiation of a 375 W tungsten lamp. Upon the completion of the reaction, the mixture washed with saturated saline and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was separated, dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated under a reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate/n-hexane=1/20→1/9) to obtain 1.4 g of the titled compound (yield: 74%) as a yellow solid.
