Procedure

A mixture of [2-(4-chloro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-benzooxazol-6-yl]-methanol (1 eq) and Pd(PBut3)2 (0.05 eq) is treated with isobutyl zinc bromide in THF (0.5 M, 3 eq). The resulting mixture is heated at 100° C. in microwave for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture is diluted with aqueous HCl (5%) and extracted with EtOAc. The organic solution is washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4. After concentration, the residue is purified by flash column chromatography (30% EtOAc in hexane) to give the desired intermediate [2-(4-isobutyl-3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-benzooxazol-6-yl]-methanol. MS: (ES+): 350.1 (M+1)+.
