To a solution of Example 81A (0.1 g, 0.18 mmol) and 1-(5-fluoro-2-phenoxyphenyl)-N-methylmethanamine (0.20 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (3 mL) was added Hunig's base (0.025 g), and the solution was heated at 60° C. for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with 50 mL of CH2Cl2 and washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was choromatographed over silica using CH2Cl2 to give the titled compound. 1H NMR (CD3OD) δ ppm 2.25 (3H), 2.90 (3H), 4.60 (2H), 6.90-7.60 (12H); MS (ESI) 578 (M+H)+.
