Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-[2,4-difluoro-3-[[2-fluoro-3-(3-fluorophenyl)-5-methoxy-phenyl]methylamino]phenoxy]acetate (150 mg, 0.32 mmol, 1.0 eq) and AlCl3 (259 mg, 1.94 mmol, 6.0 eq) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) at 0° C. was added ethanethiol (120 mg, 1.94 mmol, 6.0 eq). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 3 h. The resulting mixture was poured into water and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic extract was dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo and the residue purified by column chromatography (EtOAc:petroleum ether, 0:1 to 1:2) to give the title as a yellow oil (120 mg, 82%).
