Procedure

To a solution of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-methanesulfonyloxy-3-phenylbutane (Step F, 12 g, 34 mmol) in dimethylformamide (50 mL) was added sodium azide (11 g, 0.17 mol). After stirring at 120° C. for 1 h, the reaction mixture was poured into water (200 mL), and the product was extracted with ether (2 times 100 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to dryness, and the residue was purified on a silica gel column eluting with hexane to give the title compound.
