Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(4,4-dimethylpentyl)-2′-fluoro-5′-methoxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ol (280 mg) in THF (5.0 mL) were added triphenylphosphine (348 mg), ethyl 3-cyclopropyl-3-(3-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl)propanoate (330 mg) and a 40% solution of diethyl azodicarboxylate in toluene (600 μL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr.
