Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-iodo-2-(2-methoxy-ethoxymethoxy)-benzyl alcohol (7.5 g, 22 mmol) in 60 mL of THF at 15° C. is added triphenylphosphine (6.35 g, 24 mmol) followed by N-bromosuccinimide (4.3 g, 24 mmol). The solution is stirred for 5 minutes. The solution is allowed to warm to ambient temperature. After 20 minutes, the solution is concentrated. The crude product is purified by column chromatography eluting with EtOAc:CH2Cl2 :hexane (3:1:6).
