Reaktionsschritte

To 6-(benzyloxy)pyridin-3-ol (1.10 g) in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added potassium t-butoxide (5.47 mL, 1.0M in tetrahydrofuran). After stirring for 15 minutes, methyl 2,4-difluorobenzoate (1.035 g) in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2 mL) was added and the reaction heated to 75° C. for 1 hour. The reaction was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate (150 mL), washed with water (50 mL), brine (50 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography (SF40-80 g) eluting with a gradient of 5% to 20% ethyl acetate/hexanes gave the title compound.
