Procedure

5-Bromo-3-hydroxy-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1.67 g, 7/04 mmol, 1.0 Eq.), 1-(2-Chloro-phenyl)-ethanol (1.43 g, 9.16 mmol, 1.3 Eq.) and triphenylphosphine (2.40 g, 9.16 mmol, 1.3 Eq.) were dissolved in anhydrous THF (30 mL) under nitrogen. The resultant solution was cooled to 0° C. and DEAD (1.4 mL, 9.16 mmol, 1.3 Eq.) was added dropwise. The reaction was warmed to ambient temperature and stirred for 4.5 hours. The crude reaction was purified by column chromatography (10% EtOAc/petroleum ether) to give the sub-title compound as a yellow solid (2.60 g, 6.92 mmol, 98%); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.68 (3H, d), 3.88 (3H, s), 5.71 (1H, q), 6.65 (1H, s), 7.23-7.33 (2H, m), 7.37 (1H, dd), 7.66 (1H, dd).
