Procedure
A solution of 1-(p-chlorophenyl)-1-cyclopropyl-2-fluoro-4-(4-fluoro-3-phenoxyphenyl)-1,3-butadiene (26 g, 0.064 mol) in a methanol/tetrahydrofuran solution (15:1) is treated with magnesium turnings (7.72 g, 0.317 mol), stirred at room temperature for 4 hours, quenched with hydrochloric acid, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts are combined, washed sequentially with water, 2 N hdyrochloric acid and water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to obtain a residue. Flash column chromatography of the residue using silica gel and an ethyl acetate/hexanes solution (5:95) gives the title product as an oil (21.4 g, 82%) which is identified by NMR spectral analyses.
