Procedure

Compound 1 (0.68 g, 4.41 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (5 mL). NaH (60% in mineral oil, 0.19 g, 4.7 mmol) was added at room temperature affording rapid gas evolution. The reaction stirred for 0.5 h upon which 3-methyl-1-phenyl-but-2-en-1-one (0.50 g, 3.15 mmol) was added. The reaction stirred for 0.5 h upon which EtOH (5 mL) and NaBH4 (1.19 g) were added. The solution was brought to 60° C. for 0.5 h. and then cooled to room temperature. The solution was quenched with water, extracted with Et2O (3 times), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. Flash chromatography (10% AcOEt) to give the desired product as a tan solid (0.60 g, 63% yield). MS Calcd.: 298. Found 299 (M+H).
