Procedure

Triphenylphosphine (1.31 g, 13.5 mmol) and diethylazodicarboxylate (1.7 mL) were dissolved in THF (20 mL) under nitrogen. After 15 minutes 3-t-butoxycarbonylamino-2-methylphenol (2.48 g; 11.1 mmol; from step (i) above) dissolved in THF (20 mL) and 2-(4-cyanophenyl)ethanol (1.9 g, 13 mmol) were added. After 5 days at room temperature water was added and the stirring continued for 30 minutes. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase was washed with water and brine, dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo. Purification by flash chromatography afforded 2.98 g (77%) of the sub-title compound.
