Procedure
To a solution of 3-[3-(2-cyanophenylsulfonyloxy)-5-methylphenoxy]propanol (1.04 g, 3.0 mmol), as prepared in the preceding step, triphenylphosphine (1.05 g, 4.0 mmol), and N-hydroxyphthalimide (490 mg, 3.0 mmol) at 0° C. in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added diethyl azodicarboxylate (700 mg, 4.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred overnight. Water (50 mL) was added, the reaction mixture was extracted into ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The ethyl acetate solution was washed with brine (2×50 mL) and dried over Na2SO4. After removing the solvent, the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (2:1 dichloromethane/hexane to dichloromethane) to give the title compound as a colorless foam (1.12 g, 76%). 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ8.09 (m, 1H), 7.97 (m, 1H), 7.84 (m, 2H), 7.78 (m, 4H), 6.67 (s, 1H), 6.60 (s, 1H), 6.50 (s, 1H), 4.37 (t, J=6.1 Hz, 2H), 4.13 (t, J=6.1 Hz, 2H), 2.27 (s, 3H), 2.19 (m, 2H).
