Procedure

2-Phenyl-furan (119)(50 mg, 0.28 mmol) and (3-bromo-phenyl)-acetic acid (134 mg, 0.63 mmol) were dissolved in ortho-dichlorobenzene (4 ml). P2O5 (202 mg, 1.42 mmol) was added as a suspension in ortho-dichlorobenzene (2 ml). The reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. for 2 h and cooled to room temperature overnight. After the addition of further P2O5 (202 mg, 1.42 mmol), heating was resumed at 90° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and quenched with H2O (15 ml). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was washed with DCM (3×10 ml). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered and the DCM removed in vacuo. The ortho-dichlorobenzene solution was loaded to a silica-gel column and flushed with heptane (100 ml). The title compound was then eluted with 10% EtOAc in heptane.
