Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)methanol (2.0 g, 8.2 mmol) was dissolved in toluene (60 mL) and pyridine (661 μL, 8.2 mmol)) was added. The solution was cooled to 0° C. PBr3 (768 μL, 8.2 mmol) was added dropwise over 15 min. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 1 h. The mixture was washed with K2CO3 solution and extracted with EtOAc (3×30 mL). The EtOAc layer was washed with brine and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was evaporated off in-vacuo to give the crude product 4,4′-(bromomethylene)bis(methoxybenzene) (780 mg, 31%), as a colourless oil. This was used in the next reaction step without further purification. Sodium ethoxide (133 mg, 1.96 mmol) was added to DMF (5 mL) at 0° C., and the suspension was stirred for 10 min. 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (345 mg, 1.96 mmol) was slowly added and resulting mixture was stirred at this temp for 0.5 h. To this mixture 4,4′-(bromomethylene)bis(methoxybenzene (500 mg, 1.63 mmol) was added portionwise. Resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. DMF was evaporated off in-vacuo and the residue was taken up in EtOAc, and washed with brine, water and 1M NaOH (2×30 mL). The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and product was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with hexane:EtOAc (2:1) to give 49 (100 mg, 15%) as a white solid. Mpt=142-145° C. m/z=403 (M+H).
