1-Benzyloxy-3-bromobenzene (10.56 g, 40.13 mmol), 3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (7.34 g, 44.14 mmol), and n-butyl lithium (17.66 ml, 44.14 mmol) were treated in the same manner as described above for the synthesis of (2,3-dihydrobenzo[1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)methanol. The crude material was purified via flash column chromatography (10% EtOAc in hexane gradient to 40% EtOAc in hexane in about 40 min.) to give (3-Benzyloxy-phenyl)-(3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-methanol as an oil (11.54 g, 82%): 1HNMR (CDCl3) 7.43-7.21 (m, 6H, Ar), 7.04-6.85 (m, 3H, Ar), 6.54 (d, J=2 Hz, 2H, Ar), 6.36 (t, J=2 Hz, 1H, Ar), 5.72 (d, J=3 Hz, 1H, CHOH), 5.04 (s, 2H, CH2), 3.76 (s, 6H, 2OCH3), 2.21 (d, J=3 Hz, 1H, OH). The product was carried over to the next step.
