Procedure

N,N-dimethylformamide (20 mL) was heated in an oil bath set to 70° C. Isobutyl nitrite (0.90 mL, 7.6 mmol) was added, and to the resulting stirred solution at 68° C. was added a solution of ethyl 7-(2-amino-4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)phenoxy)-8-bromo-6-chlorochroman-4-carboxylate (1.6 g, 6.0 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (6 mL), dropwise over 5 minutes. The resulting solution was stirred at 70° C. for 30 minutes. The resulting red solution was cooled to ambient temperature and partitioned between water (600 mL) and ethyl acetate (50 mL). The organic layer was washed with 1M hydrochloric acid (10 mL) and brine (10 mL), then dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 95/5 to 85/15 hexanes/ethyl acetate, to afford ethyl 8-bromo-7-(4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)phenoxy)-6-chlorochroman-4-carboxylate as an orange oil (0.27 g, 17% yield).
