Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-bromo-3-[(2-methyl-2-propen-1-yl)oxy]phenyl acetate (Intermediate 39, 2.324 g) in toluene (20 ml) AIBN (1.606 g, 9.78 mmol) and tributylstannane (4.73 g, 16.30 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred and heated at 100° C. for 2 hours, then was left at room temperature for 4 hours. The reaction was quenched with water (60 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 times 50 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using a 100 g-SNAP column and cyclohexane/ethyl acetate from 100/0 to 70/30 as eluent to afford the title compound as a colourless oil (1.290 g).
