Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, to toluene (10 mL) were added 5-bromo-2,2,4,6,7-pentamethyl-3-(4-methylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran (2 g) and (S)-(−)-1-phenylethylamine (0.94 g), then palladium acetate (5 mg) and (S)-(−)-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-dinaphthyl (41.6 mg), and further sodium tert-butoxide (0.86 g). The mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 6 hours. Diluted hydrochloric acid was added to the reaction solution. The organic layer was washed with a 10% aqueous solution of sodium chloride and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected silica gel column chromatography, which was eluted with ethyl acetate-n-hexane [1:19], to obtain the title compound (2.13 g, 96.0%).
