The reaction was heated at 125° C. for 26 hrs and upon completion, allowed to cool to room temperature. It was then diluted with water. The aqueous layer was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate extracts were washed with water (40 mL) and brine (40 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered, concentrated and purified by silica gel chromatography (0%-40% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to give 554 mg of 2-(4-((5-(benzyloxy)-2-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)-3-methyl-1H-indol-1-yl)methyl)phenoxy)ethanol as a pale yellow foam. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 7.48 (d, 4H), 7.45-7.37 (m, 4H), 7.37-7.32 (m, 2H), 7.30 (d, 2H), 7.21 (d, 1H), 7.15-7.10 (m, 3H), 6.81 (dd, 1H), 6.74 (s, 4H), 5.20-5.10 (m, 6H), 4.81 (t, 1H), 3.87 (t, 2H), 3.64 (q, 2H), 2.16 (s, 3H).
