Bring to a heavy reflux, a mixture of 3-[[4-(4-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2-propyl-phenoxymethyl)-phenyl]-(tetrahydro-pyran-2-yloxy)-methyl]-benzonitrile (3.0 g, 6 mmol), zinc (II) bromide (4.1 g, 18 mmol), sodium azide (2.34 g, 36 mmol), water (20 mL) and isopropyl alcohol (20 mL) for 18 hours. Cool and dilute the reaction mixture with water (100 mL) and adjust the pH to 2 with 1M hydrochloric acid. Extract the product with ethyl acetate (2×150 mL), combine the extracts and wash with water (100 mL), brine (100 mL), dry over magnesium sulfate, filter, and concentrate. Stir the residue in methanol (50 mL), and add p-toluenesulfonic acid mono hydrate (4 g, 21 mmol) and stir at room temperature for an hour. Concentrate the mixture and dilute with water (100 mL). Extract the product with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). Wash the combined extracts with water (2×100 mL), brine (100 mL), dry over magnesium sulfate, filter, and concentrate. Purify the resulting residue via silica chromatography eluting with 1:1 hexanes:ethyl acetate to 1:1 ethyl acetate:acetone to acetone to give the title compound (2.6 g, 95%) as a tan solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) d 12.86 (s, 1H), 8.12 (s, 1H), 7.87 (d, 1H), 7.80 (d, 1H), 7.39-7.55 (m, 6H), 6.72 (d, 1H), 6.11 (d, 1H), 5.82 (d, 1H), 5.23 (s, 2H), 2.56 (s, 3H), 2.57-2.60 (m, 2H), 1.44-1.52 (m, 2H), 0.87 (t, 3H). LCMS (m/z) 457 M−1.
