반응 단계

To a cold solution (0° C.) of 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-propane-1-one (726 mg, 3.5 mmol, Step 3), pyridine (0.5 mL, 6.2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was added 4-methoxyphenylacetyl chloride (1.5 g, 8.4 mmol) over 2 minutes. The resulting yellow solution was stirred at r.t. for 18 h. Then DBU was added in portions every 30 min. (3×1.0 mL, 3×6.7 mmol). The reaction was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and 1N HCl (50 mL). The organic layer was washed with water (50 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified first by flash chromatography eluted with 40% EtOAc in hexane and then by crystallization in EtOAc and hexane (1:1, 26 mL) to give the title compound as a white solid.
