Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of {4-[3,3-bis-(4-bromo-phenyl)-allylsulfanyl]-2-methyl-phenoxy}-acetic acid (example 1) (225 mg, 0.410 mmol), 4-biphenylboronic acid (163 mg, 0.82 mmol), KF (79 mg, 1.35 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (23 mg, 0.025 mmol) and Pd(P(t-Bu)3)2 (25 mg, 0.049 mmol) was evacuated for air and kept under nitrogen. THF (6 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at 70° C. overnight. A saturated aqueous NH4Cl (5 ml) solution was added, and the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride (2×20 ml). The combined organic phases were dried an evaporated. The isolated products were further purified on column chromatography using methylene chloride:THF (40:1) as eluent. The isolated products were further purified on HPLC using acetonitril:water (7:3) increasing to pure acetonotril as eluent. The title product was isolated as an E/Z mixture in 40 mg (16%) yield.
