Reaction Steps

6-hydroxy-3-[4-(2-carboxyvinyl)benzoyl]-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene (310 mg, 0.74 mmol) was dissolved in 50 mL of a 1:1 mixture of EtOH and EtOAc. This solution was hydrogenated at 40 psi in the presence of 10% Pd/C (200 mg). When the reaction was judged complete by TLC analysis, the mixture was filtered through Celite to remove the catalyst. The filtrated was concentrated in vacuo to a yellow oil that was triturated from hexanes/EtOAc. Filtration provided 225 mg (72%) of 6-hydroxy-3-[4-(2-carboxyethyl)benzoyl]-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)benzo[b]thiophene as a yellow solid. mp 244-248° C. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 12.15 (bs, 1H), 9.74 (S, 1H), 9.68 (S, 1H), 7.56 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.30 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.23-7.19 (m, 3H), 7.12 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2H), 6.82 (dd, J=9.0, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 6.62 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2H), 2.77 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 2.45 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 2).
