(R)-1-(3-fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-phenylethanamine was prepared as described in Procedures 4, 5 and 6. (R)-1-(3-fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-phenylethanamine (50 mg, 0.133 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous acetonitrile (0.26 mL). (R)-2-(trifluoromethyl)oxirane (0.07 mL, 0.625 mmol), (approximate 85:15 ratio of R to 5) was added to the solution in a microwave vial followed by Yb(OSO2CF3)3 (0.005 g, 0.008 mmol). The sealed vial was heated to 160° C. for 30 minutes under microwave irradiation. The crude product was purified by preparative HPLC using 30-100% acetonitrile in H2O with 0.1% TFA as mobile phase to give (R)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-((R)-1-(3-fluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-phenylethylamino)propan-2-ol as a colorless oil (30 mg, 46% yield). LC-MS (ESI): 361.15 (M+H), retention time=4.10 min (0-100% MeOH in H2O with 0.1% TFA); Analytical HPLC: 3.49 min (CH3CN in H2O with 0.1% TFA in 4 min run, purity 100%); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ ppm 2.59-2.73 (m, 1H), 2.72-2.84 (m, 1 H), 3.69 (m, 2H), 4.09 (m, 1H), 6.61-6.82 (m, 2H), 7.00-7.19 (m, 5H), 7.20-7.48 (m, 5H).
