Procedure

To a hot solution (136° C.) of PPA (8.2 g) in chlorobenzene (50 mL) is added a solution of compound 563-C (4.34 g; 22.4 mmol) in chlorobenzene (35 mL). The reaction was stirred at 136° C. for 18 h, cooled to ambient temperature, diluted with EtOAc, quenched with H2O, and the EtOAc layer was washed with H2O, brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the solvent evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2), eluting with a heptane-EtOAc gradient to afford compound 563-D as an oil. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 1.31-1.33 (d, 6H), 3.26-3.31 (m, 1H), 7.33-7.43 (m, 2H), 7.83-7.85 (m, 1H), 7.95-7.97 (m, 1H); MS: m/z 328.0 (MH+).
