Tert-butyl 4-bromobenzoate (210.4 g, 818.2 mmol) was dissolved in 1 L of dioxane, which was previously degassed with argon, in a 4-neck 5 L round bottom flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer and a reflux condenser. Under argon flow and with stirring, ethyl 6-chloro-7-hydroxychroman-4-carboxylate (176.4 g, 687.2 mmol), N,N-dimethyl glycine hydrochloride (35.7 g, 346.2 mmol) and cuprous chloride (34.0 g, 342.9 mmol) were added via a funnel. Cesium carbonate then added and an additional 0.5 L of dioxane was added to the reaction mixture. The mixture was then heated at 95-97° C. for 20 hours. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into 3 L of a 3:1 mixture of hexanes:ethyl acetate and activated charcoal (300 g) was added. After stirring periodically for 1 hour, the mixture was filtered thru GF/F paper, washing the filter cake with 2 L of a 3:1 mixture of hexanes:ethyl acetate. The resulting golden brown solution was concentrated to provide 304 g of crude ethyl 7-(4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-phenoxy)-6-chlorochroman-4-carboxylate. The crude product was dissolved in dichloromethane, concentrated onto silica gel and purified by flash column chromatography, eluting with a gradient of 10 to 25% ethyl acetate in hexanes to give ethyl 7-(4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)phenoxy)-6-chlorochroman-4-carboxylate as a colorless, viscous oil (221 g, 74.3% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.96 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 7.37 (s, 1H), 6.94 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 6.54 (s, 1H), 4.21-4.29 (m, 4H), 3.74 (t, J=5.3 Hz, 1H), 2.30-2.36 (m, 1H), 2.05-2.14 (m, 1H), 1.58 (s, 9H), 1.31 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3H).
