Reaction Steps

[(3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-4-yl)oxy][tris(1-methylethyl)]silane (Intermediate 24, 7.4 g, 23.19 mmol) was dissolved in THF (70.0 mL). N-Bromosuccinimide (4.2 g, 23.88 mmol) was added dissolving in few minutes. This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hrs. More NBS (0.64 g, 3.48 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for a further hour. CCl4 (50 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and the solution was evaporated to dryness. The residue was re-suspended in CCl4 and stirred at room temperature for 15 min. The white solid was removed by filtration and the wet cake was washed with more CCl4. The CCl4 was swapped with ethyl acetate and the organic solution was washed three times with 2.5% w/w aqueous NaHCO3 and finally with water. The organic solution was dried on anhydrous Na2SO4 and evaporated to dryness to give the title compound (8.6 g) as a brown oil.
