Procedure

A solution of 3-cyclopentyl-2-(4-iodo-phenyl)-propionic acid methyl ester (716 mg, 2.0 mmol) and triethylamine (2 mL, 0.01 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 mL) was treated with 1-dimethylamino-2-propyne (0.54 mL, 5.0 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was degassed with argon and then treated with cooper iodide (10 mg, 0.05 mmol) and bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) chloride (15 mg, 0.02 mmol). The reaction was then heated at 70° C. for 24 h. At this time, the reaction was cooled to 25° C. and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with ethyl acetate (40 mL) and washed with a half-saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (1×20 mL). The resulting aqueous layer was back extracted with ethyl acetate (1×120 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (Merck Silica gel 60, 230-400 mesh, 95/5 chloroform/methanol) afforded 3-cyclopentyl-2-[4-(3-dimethylamino-prop-1-ynyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid methyl ester (572 mg, 91%) as an amber oil: EI-HRMS m/e calcd for C20H27NO3 (M+) 313.2051, found 312.1850.
