Reaction Steps

Titanium (IV) ethoxide (17.5 g, 76.92 mmol) was added to a solution of (S)-4-chloro-1-(5-fluoro-2-((tetrahydrofuran-3-yl)oxy)phenyl)butan-1-one (11 g, 38.46 mmol) and (S)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (9.32 g, 76.92 mmol) in THF (170 mL) with stirring. The mixture was stirred continuously at 70° C. for 16 h. Reaction mixture was then cooled to a temperature of 20-35° C., quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl solution, diluted with ethyl acetate and filtered. The filtrate was washed with water followed by brine solution. The organic layer was separated, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 44.5 g of the title compound as a colorless liquid. MS (ESI): 390.2 (M+H).
