Participants

Reaction Steps

Compound 1D (300 mg, 1.26 mmol), 4-chloro-1-(4-chloro-phenyl)-butan-1-one (327 mg, 1.51 mmol), and cesium carbonate (616 mg, 1.89 mmol) in 10 ml anhydrous acetonitrile were stirred at ambient temperature for 72 hours. The reaction was then run through 0.5 g SiO2 eluting with Et2O. The eluant was collected and concentrated to give the title compound, pure enough for subsequent use. MS m/z 419 (M+1).
