4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one (3.0 g, 9.6 mmol) was added to a mixture of cesium carbonate (12.6 g, 38.6 mmol) and DMF (1000 mL) at RT under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 30 min upon which 2-(chloromethyl)-3,5-dimethylpyridine (2.25 g, 14.5 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was heated for 4 h at 80° C. (the reaction was monitored by TLC). The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organics were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography using 15% ethyl acetate in n-hexane and silica gel (230-400 mesh) to afford 4-(4-((3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methoxy)phenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one (3.2 g, 65.3%) as an off-white solid. 1H NMR: 500 MHz, DMSO-d6: δ 8.2 (s, 1H), 7.65 (d, 2H), 7.45 (s, 1H), 7.15 (d, 2H), 7.1 (d, 2H), 7.0 (d, 2H), 5.2 (s, 2H), 3.8 (s, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 2.3 (s, 3H), 1.45 (s, 6H). MS: [M+H]+: m/z=430.4. HPLC (96.3%, Condition-A).
