Procedure

n-Butyllithium (1.6M in hexanes, 261 μL, 0.417 mmol) was added dropwise over 30-45 min with a syringe pump to a stirred solution of tert-butyl{[4′-fluoro-5′-isopropyl-2′-methoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-2-yl]methoxy}dimethylsilane (200 mg, 0.438 mmol) in dry THF (0.5 mL) at −78° C. under N2. The reaction was stirred for a further 2 h at −78° C. after the addition to give a violet colored solution. Trimethyl borate (43.4 mg, 47 μL, 0.417 mmol) was added dropwise and the reaction was stirred at −78° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was warmed to 0° C. and acetic acid (25.1 mg, 24 μL, 0.626 mmol) was added quickly followed by 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide (52 μL, 0.459 mmol) dropwise. The reaction was stirred at room temperature overnight, diluted with water (10 mL) and extracted with Et2O (3×20 mL). The combined extracts were washed with 50% saturated FeSO4 (20 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo to give the crude product. This was purified by flash chromatography (Si, 12×160 mm, 0-100% EtOAc in hexanes gradient) to afford 2′-({[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-4-fluoro-5-isopropyl-2-methoxy-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-3-ol. Rf=0.32 (10% EtOAc in hexanes).
