Reaction Steps

The above product 36B (1.0 g, 3.64 mmol) was refluxed with tin powder (2.2 g, 18.8 mmol) in MeOH (10 mL) and 4M HCl/dioxane (10 mL). After 3 h, the reaction mixture was poured into ice with CH2Cl2 (100 mL). The phases were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to give the thiol compound 36C as a yellow oil (650 mg, 86%). MS: 207 (M−1)+. Step 4. Preparation of (4′-Trifluoromethyl-biphenyl-4-yl)-methanol (Compound 36D)
