Procedure
To a solution of 2.84 g 3-(4-bromophenyl)-1-cyclohexylpropan-1-one from Step B above in 50 mL anhydrous THF was added 1.15 g 60% sodium hydride followed by one 6.2 mL and five 3.2 mL portions of ethyl formate over one day. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature under nitrogen for another day. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was partitioned between cold 0.1 N HCl and ether. The combined ether extract was washed with water (2×), 5% NaHCO3 (3×), water, and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and evaporated to give crude product as orange solid. It was purified on silica gel using 10˜15% EtOAc in hexanes to give the title compounds as pink oily solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ 15.43 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 8.01 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H), 7.43˜7.45 (m, 2H), 7.07 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 2H), 3.52 (s, 2H), 2.32 (tt, J=11.5 & Hz, 1H), 1.73˜1.77 (m, 2H), 1.63˜1.68 (m, 1H), 1.49˜1.53 (m, 2H), 1.39˜1.47 (m, 2H), 1.07˜1.25 (m, 4H).
