5-Chloromethyl-4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine → 3-{4-[4-Cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-ylmethoxy]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1-yl}-propionic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedures described in example 5C] and 5D], 3-(4-hydroxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1-yl)-propionic acid ethyl ester (example 5B]) was reacted with 5-chloromethyl-4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine (example 9E]) to give 3-{4-[4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-ylmethoxy]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1-yl}-propionic acid ethyl ester, which was subsequently saponified to yield the title compound as colorless solid.
