Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 0.35 g (2-bromophenyl)(2,4,6-trimethoxybenzyl)sulfane (0.96 mmol) in dry THF was added slowly 1.2 eq n-BuLi. The reaction was stirred 25 minutes at −78° C. before 1.2 eq 3-methoxybenzaldehyde was added slowly. The reaction was warmed to ambient temperature and stirred for one additional hour before the addition of water. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Flash silica chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate 80:20) afforded 0.288 g product (0.68 mmol, 70% yield).
