Procedure

To a solution of methyl 6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-pyridinecarboxylate (D80, 650 mg, 2.84 mmol) in acetone (8 ml) were added K2CO3 (780 mg, 5.67 mmol) and 1-(bromomethyl)-2-fluorobenzene (805 mg, 4.26 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 60° C. under nitrogen atmosphere for 6 h. Solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in AcOEt. The organic phase was washed with water, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The crude compound was purified by flash chromatography on 25 g silica gel cartridge, using a gradient of cyclohexane/ethylacetate 10/0 to 8/2 as eluent, to give the title compound (700 mg, 73%).
