Reaction vessels used in this procedure were flame dried under vacuum and all operations carried out in an oxygen-free, argon or nitrogen atmosphere. To a solution of 465.7 mg (2.3019 mmol) of 4,4-dimethyl-6-ethynyl-thiochroman in 4 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran at 0° C. was added dropwise 1.5 ml of 1.6M (2.4 mmol) n-butyllithium in hexane. This was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes and at room temperature for 10 minutes, cooled again to 0° C. and then treated with a solution of 330 mg (2.4215 mmol) of fused ZnCl2 in 4 ml dry tetrahydrofuran using a double ended needle. Thereafter the solution was stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes, then at room temperature for 10 minutes. A solution of 426.3 mg (2.2967 mmol) of ethyl 6-chloronicotinoate (from Example 5) in 4 ml dry tetrahydrofuran was transferred by double ended needle into a suspension of 430 mg (0.37 mmol) of tetrakistriphenylphosphine palladium in 4 ml dry tetrahydrofuran and stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes, then treated by double ended needle with the solution of the alkynylzinc prepared above. This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours, then quenched with 100 ml water. Product was recovered by extraction with 3×75 ml ether. Ether fractions were combined and washed with saturated NaCl solutions and dried (mgSO4). Solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue purified by flash chromatography (silica; 5% ethyl acetate in hexane) followed by HPLC (Whatman Partisil M-9 10/50; 4% ethyl acetate in hexane) to give the title compound as a white solid.
