Reaktionsschritte

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (370 μL, 2.4 mmoles) is added to a solution of 200 mg of 1-(2-fluoro-4′-hydroxy-biphenyl-4-yl)-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid (0.8 mmoles), triphenyl phosphine (623 mg, 2.4 mmoles) and 4-trifluoromethyl cyclohexanol (400 mg, 2.4 mmoles) in dry THF (3 mL) at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. The resulting clear orange solution is left under stirring overnight, then quenched with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase is washed with 10% w/v HCl solution, dried on Na2SO4 and evaporated. Purification by chromatography on silica gel by eluting with methylene chloride:methanol 98:2 v/v furnishes 1-[2-fluoro-4′-(4-trifluoromethyl-cyclohexyloxy)-biphenyl-4-yl]-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid as a white solid.
