Reaction Steps

In a similar manner to that described in Reference example 1(d), a reaction was carried out using ethyl 3-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-2-(4-t-butylphenoxy)propionate (3.00 g), which is the product of Reference example 36(a) and palladium on carbon (5%, 300 mg) and the reaction mixture was treated to afford the desired compound (2.37 g) as a colorless oil.
