Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, to toluene (10 mL) were added 5-bromo-2,2,4,6,7-pentamethyl-3-(4-methylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran (2 g) and (R)-(+)-1-phenylethylamine (0.94 g), then palladium acetate (5 mg) and (S)-(−)-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-dinaphthyl (41.6 mg), and further sodium tert-botoxide (0.86 g). The mixture was stirred at 107° C. for 7 hours. Diluted hydrochloric acid was added to the reaction solution. The organic layer was separated and washed with a 10% aqueous solution of sodium chloride and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, which was eluted with ethyl acetate-n-hexane [1:9], to obtain the title compound (2.12 g, 95.5%).
