Reaction Steps

(RS)-(2,6-Difluoro-4-hydroxy-phenyl)-ethoxy-acetic acid ethyl ester (500 mg) was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (20 ml). Cu(OAc)2 (349 mg), 4-methoxyphenylboronic acid (876 mg) and MS4 Å were added followed by pyridine (760 mg). The mixture was stirred over night before filtration and evaporation of the solvent. CC (Hept/CH2Cl2 1:4) afforded 455 mg (65%) of (RS)-[2,6-difluoro-4-(4-methoxy-phenoxy)-phenyl]-ethoxy-acetic acid ethyl ester. Yellow oil.
