Procedure
A solution of 450 mg (1.09 mmol) of methyl 4-[(3E)-2-[2-(4-cyanophenyl)ethyl]-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)but-3-en-1-yl)benzoate in 10 ml of dry acetonitrile is mixed with 825.2 mg (1.64 mmol) of 2-chloro-4-(tert-butyl)benzyl bromide and 453.4 mg (3.28 mmol) of anhydrous potassium carbonate and heated under reflux for 12 h. The mixture is then concentrated to dryness. The residue is taken up in ethyl acetate, washed with water and saturated sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulfate. The organic phase is concentrated. The resulting crude product is purified by preparative HPLC. 518 mg (0.87 mmol, 73.9% of theory) of a colorless foam are obtained.
