Reaction Steps

Following general procedure D and using 6-bromo-8-ethyl-2,2,4,4-tetramethyl chroman (Intermediate 46, 0.5 g, 1.61 mmol), (trimethylsilyl)acetylene (1.57 g, 16.1 mmol), triethyl amine (8 mL), anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (10 mL), copper(I)iodide (0.025 g, 0.13 mmol) and dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) (0.075 g, 0.11 mmol), followed by flash column chromatography over silica gel (230-400 mesh) using 5% ethyl acetate in hexane as the eluent, the title compound was obtained as an oil (0.137 g, 27%).
