2-Methylbenzyl bromide (0.98 g, 5.3 mmol) and phenol 1 (0.97 g, 4.4 mmol) were dissolved in acetone (9 mL) and treated with Cs2CO3 (1.45 g, 4.4 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 16 h then filtered and concentrated to an oil which was purified by radial chromatography (2 mm silica gel plate, 10% ethyl acetate in hexanes). Eluant containing compound 13.1 was concentrated to a colorless oil (1.37 g, 96%). This material was analyzed by chiral HPLC (Daicel ChiralPAK AD-H column, eluant: 0.1% TFA in 95:5 hexanes:2-propanol) and was found to have 94% ee. 1H NMR(500 MHz)(MeOH-d4) δ 7.39 (d, 1H, J=7 Hz); 7.28 (d, 2H, J=8.5 Hz); 7.25-7.15 (m, 3H); 5.05 (s, 2H); 4.02 (m, 1H); 3.64 (s, 3H); 2.68 (m, 2H); 2.36 (s, 3H); 1.80 (d, 3H, J=2.5 Hz). MS ESI (pos.) m/e: 323.0 (M+H); 245.1 (M+Na).
