Reaction Steps

To a solution tert-butyl (2-(4-bromo-2-methylphenyl)-3-{4-[2-(2,6-dichloro-4-methylphenoxy)ethoxy]phenyl}propyl)carbamate from EXAMPLE 2, step 2 (1 eq.) and [2-(3-methoxypropyl)-6-methylphenyl]boronic acid from step 1 (1.1 eq.) in 1-2 dimethoxyethane/water (6/1; 0.1M) at room temperature was added palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) (0.05 eq.) and Barium hydroxide (1.5 eq.). The mixture was stiffed at 80° C. for 5 h, cooled to room temperature, poured in water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was washed with, brine, dried over MgSO4 filtered and concentrated. Purification by column chromatography on silica gel (Combi-Flash by ISCO), eluting with Hex/EtOAc (10 to 70%, in 30 min) afforded the desired compound.
