Reaction Steps

As in Example 15, (E)-3-[4'-fluoro-3-(1-methylethyl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl]-2-propen-1-ol (0.58 g) was reacted with 4-hydroxyphenylglyoxylic acid methyl ester (0.387 g) in the presence of diethyl azoclicarboxylate (0.448 g) and triphenylphosphine (0.68 g) in tetrahydrofuran (25 mL). The usual work up afforded 1.3 g of a crude mixture that was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel (130 g; ethyl acetate-hexane; 3:7) to furnish 0.55 g of (E)-4-[3-[4'-fluoro-3-(1-methylethyl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-yl]-2-propenyloxy]-alpha-oxobenzeneacetic acid methyl ester as a oil.
